ntp-client can't connect to the ntp server when openrc 0.5.1 and the new new network scripts are used. The following solution worked for me: /etc/conf.d/ntpd: change the last line to NTPD_OPTS="-g" /etc/ntp.conf: add iburst to all lines defining the time servers. rc-update del ntp-client default I think these changes should be made the default before openrc goes stable. Also relevant is that ntpdate is considered deprecated according to it's man page. Reproducible: Always
Can you go back to the default settings and let me know if this is still an issue with openrc-0.5.2-r2? Thanks much, William
I was unable to reproduce this with the default settings and the most current openrc. The deprication of ntpdate is definitely something that we should look at, but I think we can use another bug for that.
