Howdy. I've a small problem that is really starting to piss me off. I have a custom ntp.conf on my plaything gentoo box; all ntpd does on this box is maintain peer connections amongst all my home unix boxen (one of which syncs to outside sources). Whenever this box is rebooted (which is frequent as its also a new-kernel playground) something (I presume the ntpd startup script) proceeds to nuke my custom ntp.conf and replace it with the default ntp.conf, looking only at the internal clock. Well, I HAVE my own ntp.conf and I WANT it used. Can anyone help me make this thing keep blowing my desired conf file away?
The only line I have uncommented in /etc/conf.d/ntpd is NTPDATE_WARN="n" . I guess I could feed ntpd an option to look at my personal .conf file; either way, though, I would at least like to know what bit is overwriting the default file. Also.. is there a man/doc package for ntpd? thanks, -r -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
