I'll be submitting a bugzilla when I get something other than an error about
too many connections when trying to connect to bugzilla, but for now I thought
I'd mention this here:

[root at f10-i ~]# /usr/sbin/ntpdate -U ntp -b ntp1.ccur.com ntp2.ccur.com
Error : Name or service not known
26 Nov 07:41:41 ntpdate[2900]: can't find host ntp1.ccur.com

Error : Name or service not known
26 Nov 07:41:41 ntpdate[2900]: can't find host ntp2.ccur.com

26 Nov 07:41:41 ntpdate[2900]: no servers can be used, exiting
[root at f10-i ~]# ping ntp1.ccur.com
PING trex (129.134.30.36) 56(84) bytes of data.
...
[root at f10-i ~]# ping ntp2.ccur.com
PING pteri (129.134.30.149) 56(84) bytes of data.
...

Clearly some folks can lookup the names ntp1.ccur.com and ntp2.ccur.com with
no problems, not sure why ntpdate can't look them up.
