How does your firewall get its IP address? If it is by PPP then you can scripts in /etc/ppp/ip-{up,down}.d to start and stop the ntp daemon. This should get triggered when a new IP address is negotiated. Check the man page for pppd(8) and search for ip-up to see the details of how it's used, but just dropping scripts in those directories should be sufficient. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
