Description Brent Fox 2002-07-10 14:54:46 EDT

Look in /etc/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-eth0.info to see if the ntp server is provided by dhcp

> NTPSERVERS=194.159.73.44

> just browsing through all of /etc/dhcpcd/*info for that line might be
> enough.....

Comment 1 Bill Nottingham 2002-07-10 18:35:43 EDT

Note that for dhclient the file loc changes...

Comment 2 Brent Fox 2002-07-11 11:35:38 EDT

What is the new location?

Comment 3 Brent Fox 2002-07-23 10:56:59 EDT

*** Bug 69571 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Comment 4 Jay Turner 2002-08-12 15:55:18 EDT

The dhclient path is /var/lib/dhcp/ and then the file is called
dhclient-<interface>.leases.

Comment 5 Elliot Lee 2002-08-27 13:41:13 EDT

If given NTP servers, dhclient writes ntp.conf directly (in recent packages).
There's really no part for redhat-config-date to play in that.
