Following up on the comments from bugzilla about reloading configuration. chronyd cannot easily support reloading its configuration (e.g. due to losing root privileges), but it could have a directive specific to NTP sources. The files could be reloaded on request from chronyc. It would basically reimplement the logic from the chrony-helper script, which would became redundant. A dispatcher script would just create or remove a *.sources file in a directory (e.g. /var/run/chrony-dhcp) specified in chrony.conf and a chronyc command would tell chronyd to add the new sources and/or remove sources that are no longer there. All sources would be visible in chrony.conf. No need to set a PEERNTP variable to disable the servers from DHCP. I'll see what it would take to implement such directive. -- Miroslav Lichvar -- To unsubscribe email chrony-dev-requ...@chrony.tuxfamily.org with "unsubscribe" in the subject.
