Subject: [sipx-dev] porting NTP to cfengine (rewriting System > Date & TIme
page)

Hi All,

I am rewriting System > Date and Time page / functionality (that is to port
to cfengine) and I want to make it more configurable from config UI.
Basically the settings I am thinking to expose / configure NTP with are:

- local fudge if network servers not available option (checkbox setting,
defaults to enable) when enabled translates in /etc/ntp.conf to server
127.127.1.0 fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10

- NTP servers to talk with (a list of max 4 servers, default to pool.ntp.org
servers) translated in /etc/ntp.conf to e.g.
server 0.fedora.pool.ntp.org
server 1.fedora.pool.ntp.org
server 2.fedora.pool.ntp.org
server 3.fedora.pool.ntp.org

- option to provide time for other systems (checkbox setting) - if enabled
configure list of networks (IP / mask) from which this server will accept
NTP synchronization requests translated in /etc/ntp.conf to e.g.
restrict 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0 nomodify notrap

Please let me know if I captured all the NTP config people are using with
sipXecs and if not what other pieces you want to see configured from admin
UI.
I am going also to remove the Manual option for Time Setting Type as it's
not really recommended (anyone using it?)

Thanks
George
