ntp-client should have "USE rp-pppoe" so a DSL connection will be started before ntp tries to update the system clock. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. add rp-pppoe and ntp-client to a runlevel 2. boot into this runlevel Actual Results: ntp-client fails because it is tried before the DSL connection is up. Expected Results: ntp-client setting is system time. ntpd should propably also have "USE rp-pppoe" Portage 2.0.50-r6 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.3.2, glibc-2.3.2-r9, 2.6.6-rc1) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.6-rc1 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2400+ Gentoo Base System version 1.4.9 distcc 2.13 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [disabled] Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.58-r1 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -mmmx -m3dnow -fomit-frame-pointer -fforce-addr -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -mmmx -m3dnow -fomit-frame-pointer -fforce-addr -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache sandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.gentoo.skynet.be/pub/gentoo/" MAKEOPTS="-j1" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.de.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="3dnow X Xaw3d acpi acpi4linux alsa avi berkdb cdr crypt cscope cups curl dga dvd encode esd fbcon ffmpeg foomaticdb gdbm gif glut gstreamer gtk gtk2 guile imlib java jikes joystick jpeg libg++ libwww ltsp mad maildir mcal mikmod mmx motif moznocompose moznoirc moznomail mozsvg mpeg mpeg4 ncurses nls nvidia offensive oggvorbis openal opengl oscar oss pam pdflib perl physfs pic png ppds python readline sasl sdl slang spell sqlite sse ssl tcpd tetex tiff transcode truetype unicode usb v4l vim-with-x x86 xinerama xml2 xmms xv xvid zlib"
no, rp-pppoe should provide net
temporary workaround: add the following line to /etc/init.d/rp-pppoe under "after domainname" before ntp-client to make sure the adsl-link is brought up before the ntp-client. add the following line to /etc/init.d/ntp-client under the start() line: sleep 5 to make sure the ntp-client is caple of resolving the ntp server from the internet you are syncing to.
fixed. Copy ${PORTDIR}/net-dialup/rp-pppoe/files/rp-pppoe.rc to /etc/init.d/rp-pppoe to otherwise remerge.
