I experienced this same bug. After a bit of analysis, I realized that  
for some reason, NTP configuration also updates “/etc/resolv.conf” !

I had manually modified my resolv.conf, so NTP crashed. When I renamed  
my resolv.conf to resolv.conf.manual - and ran NTP configuration again,  
it ran to completion successfully. BTW, it does recreate resolv.conf  
based on your network settings..

Cheers,  
Lyle
