Do you invoke the (chronyc) "trimrtc" command? (If this works, you probably want to "writertc" as well.) Does your computer have a way to get IP addresses of external NTP servers when chronyd starts (even if the network is down)? I believe that otherwise chronyd forgets about those servers and never tries to contact them. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
