Description Roy Marples (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-13 03:01:28 UTC
udhcpc (part of the net-misc/udhcp package) does not setup NTP servers in the variables it exports.

I really think it should as the DHCP protocol does allow for this - and I need it for working @ home and work ;)

enables ntpsrv - the environment variable for ntp servers

This very small patch enables NTP servers to be exported correctly so that the
udhcpc-script can set them up
