Description Matt Whitlock 2017-06-14 01:31:06 UTC
See Bug 181190 where this same deficiency was fixed for net-misc/ntp and net-misc/openntpd.

Presently the default /etc/chrony/chrony.conf contains:

  # Use public NTP servers from the pool.ntp.org project.
  pool pool.ntp.org iburst

The pool.ntp.org project specifically states:

> Open Source projects are of course particularly welcome to use the pool in their default setup, but we ask that you get a vendor zone when using the pool as a default configuration.
<http://www.pool.ntp.org/en/vendors.html#open-source>

Gentoo has a vendor zone at pool.ntp.org. It should be used in Chrony's default configuration.

Thank you! We should probably fix this in the manuals, wiki... too.
