Hi, On old openwrt 15.05 builds, if I was running in a private network, and only had some NTP servers available, ntpd would still sync, and I could still query the local ntpd for it's sync status.
However, now in lede-17.01 and lede current master, ntpd seems to just get stuck trying the first listed ntp server, and never gives up and tries the other listed servers. This seems rather odd, and particularly unhelpful. Does anyone know any workarounds? # ntpd -n -d -l -S /usr/sbin/ntpd-hotplug -p bad.example.org -p somewhere.working.org ntpd: bad address 'bad.example.org' ntpd: bad address 'bad.example.org' ntpd: bad address 'bad.example.org' ... forever.... It never gets to trying "somewhere.working.org" so simply never gets sync. Same behaviour on both 17.01 and master branch, though on 17.01, the :123 listen ports aren't opened up at all. On openwrt 15.05 (busybox 1.23.2) the behaviour is markedly different # /usr/sbin/ntpd -d -n -l -S /usr/sbin/ntpd-hotplug -p bad.example.org -p somewhere.working.org ntpd: resolved peer somewhere.working.org to 192.168.255.124 ntpd: sending query to 192.168.255.124 ntpd: bad address 'bad.example.org' ntpd: could not resolve peer bad.example.org, skipping ntpd: reply from 192.168.255.124: offset:-0.004779 delay:0.012441 status:0x24 strat:3 refid:0xc1043a2c rootdelay:0.001465 reach:0x01 ntpd: sending query to 192.168.255.124 ntpd: reply from 192.168.255.124: offset:+0.001084 delay:0.002000 status:0x24 strat:3 refid:0xc1043a2c rootdelay:0.001465 reach:0x03 Sincerely, Karl Palsson
