Coming back with the same address is unlikely, and even having the
same network interface come back up is probably not much better than
random chance.
So if I start ntpd on boot (with no network interface up), and restart
it every time I bring up a network connection, it will handle starting
with just the local clock and losing network connections sensibly without
having to make changes to ntp.conf?
Unless you want to use different servers there should be no need to
change the configuration file.
Also, by email you mentioned CPU frequency changes for power management.
That could be a problem, since I have it configured to scale the CPU
speed based on the load (with the Linux 2.6 cpufreq driver). Is there
a way to work around this without disabling the scaling entirely?
(Or is cpufreq handled differently enough to not be considered a
"low-power mode"?)
It depends how this all works within Linux.
