Hi,
I want to use ntpdate to set the system time and date during the boot
sequence of a system with a ADSL connection which takes almost 10
seconds to be brought up.

But:

I don't want to put the ntpdate command into /etc/diald/ip-up since it
should be called only once during the boot sequence.
The ntpdate command does work perfectly when called from the command
line after bootup!
Any hints?
TIA
Stony
