Description Angelo 2014-06-10 10:36:41 UTC

NTPd cannot sync time without proper ntp.conf file.

This patch provides a minimal configuration file for correct time syncing, it adds the -g flag to ntpd to adjust time also with big offsets and remove the deprecated use of ntpdate command for initial time syncing because unnecessary.

Hi Angelo, 

Could you please send this patch to the mailing list instead? This way, it is much easier for others to review your patch, and for the maintainer to accept it.

Thanks!
Thomas
