[Bug 267891] Re: network-manager not restarting ntp daemon
I'm using 10.10 here. When i manually run dhclient it searches the ntpservers and restarts ntpd with a config that uses the ntpservers received from the dhcpserver. But when i use networkmanager it also finds the ntpservers (I can see them in the leases file) but doesn't restart ntpd with these servers. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267891 Title: network-manager not restarting ntp daemon -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 267891] Re: network-manager not restarting ntp daemon
There is an aditional snag with /usr/sbin/ntp-debian. If NTPDATE_USE_NTP_CONF is set to yes (is so by default), then ntpdate- debian will look for /etc/ntp.conf.dhcp /etc/ntp.conf /etc/openntpd/ntpd.conf and ignore an ntpdate.dhcp. If the ntp package is not installed, then none of /etc/ntp.conf.dhcp /etc/ntp.conf /etc/openntpd/ntpd.conf will existand the default ubuntu NTP will be used instead of the one configured in ntpdate.dhcp. So I would propose to set NTPDATE_USE_NTP_CONF to no by default. After all, both configfiles for ntp and ntpdate would contain the correct NTP Servers (if they are created at all) and therefore use the right time. -- network-manager not restarting ntp daemon https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267891 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 267891] Re: network-manager not restarting ntp daemon
Actually, same issue with ntpdate. There is a script /etc/dhcp3 /dhclient-enter-hooks.d/ntpdate which is supposed to create /etc/default/ntpdate.dhcp. But since that script is not being called by dhclient (because of the command line supplied by NM), the new configuration file is not created.

[Bug 267891] Re: network-manager not restarting ntp daemon
Yes, the information is provided in /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.leases The relevant option is: option ntp-servers 192.168.1.1; With the .dhcp file you are correct, this is a file with a ntpd configuration with the information provided by dhcp. As to why the ubuntu (and debian for that matter) scripts use this hook, I don't know, but I can imagine there is a certain reason for that. (there are other scripts there too, avahi for example) @creating the .dhcp file: The current script already creates the file, but by using the information from the dhclinet-exit-hooks. It should be possible to use the information from the lease file with minor changes, but the problem as I see it is, that this should be provided out of the box (because it is confusing if the 2 programs behave differently) The problem is, that setting the ntp option in dhclient.conf should be honoured by both dhclient from the command line and network-manager. btw, sorry for the late response, had some problems with my mail setup the last weeks... ** Attachment added: ntp.conf.dhcp http://launchpadlibrarian.net/18919914/ntp.conf.dhcp -- network-manager not restarting ntp daemon https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267891 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 267891] Re: network-manager not restarting ntp daemon
I've played with network-manager and dhclient and found out, that when started from network-manager, the scripts in '/etc/dhcp3/dhclient-exit-hooks.d' are not properly executed. There is also the ntp script located responsible for the creation of said 'ntp.conf.dhcp' file. I've not tested, if scripts in the '/etc/dhcp3/dhclient-enter-hooks.d' directory are executed. -- network-manager not restarting ntp daemon https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267891 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 267891] Re: network-manager not restarting ntp daemon
I've located the problem now. When run from the command line, dhclient uses the script in /sbin /dhclient-scripts to execute the scripts located in the '/etc/dhcp3 /dhclient-exit-hooks.d' and '/etc/dhcp3/dhclient-enter-hooks.d' directories. network-manager calls dhclient with the parameter -sf LIBEXECDIR /nm- dhcp-client.action (translates to '/usr/lib/NetworkManager/nm-dhcp- client.action'), which does something else and the scripts are not executed. (source code location: nm-dhcp-dhclient.c:251) As far as I can see in the code, it is necessary for proper handling in network manager. It would be nice to have an interface to allow enter and exit hooks for dhclient like it was possible before. -- network-manager not restarting ntp daemon https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267891 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 267891] Re: network-manager not restarting ntp daemon
As far as I understand it, the ntpdate, which sets the system time, is run from the /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate script. The problem is for periodical updates of the system time, the ntpd daemon has to be installed, which uses a config file, which points to the ntp servers to use. The standard dhclient program does create such a configfile accordingly and restarts the ntp daemon with that, it the ntp-servers option is set. network manager fails to do that, so only the ntpdate script is run, which at least adjusts the current system time. -- network-manager not restarting ntp daemon https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267891 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
