I am trying to figure out how to tell my dhcpcd and/or pump linux boxes
to sync to the ntp timeserver I have configured in dhcpd.conf on my dhcp
server. 

I am currently using pump on my test config but will be trying dhcpcd as
well but that i would try and get a jump on it.  I have string searched
the man pages for pump and dhcpcd for ntp to no avail.  Is this feature
implemented on the client side?  definitely would be a plus for us as we
set up our remote networks.

here is the output of pump --status on one of the boxes on the test lan:


[root@ele9 /root]# pump --status
Device eth0
        IP: 192.168.3.163
        Netmask: 255.255.255.0
        Broadcast: 192.168.3.255
        Network: 192.168.3.0
        Boot server 192.168.3.3
        Next server 192.168.3.3
        Gateway: 192.168.3.3
        Domain: brets.elevating.com
        Nameservers: 192.168.0.13
        Ntpservers: 192.168.0.4
        Renewal time: Tue Jun 11 09:01:21 2002
        Expiration time: Tue Jun 11 10:31:21 2002

As you can see pump knows about the Ntpserver and it is correct but ntpq
does not list it as one of the peers:

[root@ele9 /root]# ntpq -p
     remote           refid      st t when poll reach   delay   offset 
jitter
==============================================================================
*LOCAL(0)        LOCAL(0)        10 l   34   64  377    0.000    0.000  
0.000


Bummer.  No change to ntp.conf or step-tickers as would be ideal in my
mind.  do I need to script this and do the deal manually?

Tips appreciated,

Bret
