Q: I have problems if I put the names of my NTP servers in the chrony.conf file.
If you have no connection to the Internet at boot time, chrony won't be able to
turn the names into IP addresses when it starts. There seem to be 2 solutions:
1. Put the numeric IP addresses in the chrony.conf file

2. Put the server->IP address mappings in your /etc/hosts file and ensure that
/etc/host.conf reads 'order hosts,bind'.
The problem is that chronyd (currently) isn't designed in a way that allows
hostname->IP address lookups during normal operation. I hope to work on this
