Description:   Opened: 2003-05-14 12:44 0000 
An init script for the ntp client would be a good idea, as it makes sense to
sync the 
local clock when the system is booting. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

------- Comment #1 From SpanKY 2003-05-20 05:16:51 0000 ------- 
the init script that already exists has the option to run ntpdate at boot and
thus set the clock once ...

------- Comment #2 From Luke-Jr 2003-05-20 13:59:12 0000 ------- 
Yes, but it still starts ntpd and requires existance of /etc/ntp.conf 
I just want the system to sync the clock at boot and not have a ntpd running.

ntp init script

You want to put the script (attached) in ebuild?

------- Comment #4 From SpanKY 2003-08-06 00:48:09 0000 ------- 
rather than using the given script i split the old ntpd.rc file into ntpd.rc
and ntp-client.rc ...

basically same functionality but a lot less headache :)

`rc-update del ntpd`
`/etc/init.d/ntpd stop`
`rc-update add ntp-client default`

and call it a day :)

oh, and this is in ntp-4.1.2, not 4.1.1
