Comment 6 for bug 583994

I think going forward with this ticket instead of the much older bug 61619 is preferable.

ntpdate has been deprecated upstream for a long time as previously pointed out. The NTP code has seen numerous security vulnerabilities and we have to assume that ntpdate is not receiving the same scrutiny anymore when compared to ntpd.

Setting milestone for vivid, hoping that it is not too late, yet.
