Package: ntpsec
Version: 1.2.2+dfsg1-1+deb12u1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
to be able to use my USB-attached reference clock ("GUDE Expert
mouseCLOCK USB v2.0"), I had to edit /etc/apparmor.d/usb.sbin.ntpd (see
attached patch).
Additionally, I added an udev rule in
/etc/udev/rules.d/persistent-refclock.rules with these contents:
KERNEL=="ttyUSB*", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0403", ATTRS{idProduct}=="e88a",
SYMLINK+="refclock-%m" MODE="644"
But the udev rule is probably outside the scope of the ntpsec package.
After these changes, I can use the device with the following
configuration in ntp.conf:
refclock generic subtype 19
Regards
Carsten
