Please test with drakclock started in a terminal and paste here the complete output.

Sorry Marja I missed the request.
Re-opening and changing summary.

In both systemd and sysvinit the ntpd service is now starting correctly in Cauldron on boot.
The current problem is more to do with the GUI.

In sysvinit the GUI displays the correct status i.e. the ntpd check box is checked and the correct time server is displayed - even after re-boot.

In systemd if I set a particular server in the GUI, OK it and wait for it to close, then re-open the GUI - the ntpd checkbox is blank and the server selected earlier is not shown.

Slightly OT:-
The delay after OK-ing this dialog is too long to wait without a "please wait" sub-dialog BTW - most people would assume it had crashed.

Status: RESOLVED => REOPENED
Resolution: WORKSFORME => (none)
