This probably wouldn't be a widely used feature. Are there any other devices known to be using UT1 over NTP? NTPv5 should bring official support for other timescales, but I wasn't planning to support UT1. I'd prefer to reuse/share functionality with other use cases. I already had a plan to add an offset command to chronyc to modify the offset option of existing sources. This is now in git. With that I think you can write a script that will periodically modify the offset of all sources to follow the dUT1, i.e. keep the system clock synchronized to UT1. -- Miroslav Lichvar -- To unsubscribe email chrony-dev-requ...@chrony.tuxfamily.org with "unsubscribe" in the subject.
