Description Nicolas Troncoso Carrere 2003-03-16 13:41:00 UTC 
Description of problem:




dhcpcd creates a bogus /etc/ntp.conf file


it tell ntpd that the drift file is /etc/ntp.drift, but such file does not 
exist. The file is really located at /etc/ntp/drift




ntpd after a while loses sync, and kill it self.






Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):




dhcpcd-1.3.22pl1-7




How reproducible:




very easy




Steps to Reproduce:


1.ntp server should be aquired via dhcp, and dhcpcd should handle them into the 
/etc/ntp.conf file


2.restart your network service


 


Actual results:




in the /etc/ntp.conf file following entry


driftfile /etc/ntp.drift




Expected results:


driftfile /etc/ntp/drift
