Hi!
I currently try to figure out if ntpdate is called on boottime in my
system or not.
It *should* be called when the network interfaces come up (ifup),
therefore the /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate is present. And it's indeed
called when I manually call ifup -a after booting--an entry in the
syslog then shows something like "adjust time server ... offset ...".
But I don't see such a syslog entry for boottime, so I fear there's
something wrong. Any ideas what that could be or how to be sure
everything is ok?
And another oddity: ifup is called by the network script which is
rcS.d/S40networking. So if everything works well, ntpdate sets the
system clock at S40. But *after* that S50hwclock.sh calls hwclock
--hctosys which sets the system clock to the hardware clock.
So doesn't hwclock needs to be called before ntpdate?
Bye,
Robert
