Ok, I used to get notifications in the logs about ntp syncing |
| 2 |
occasionally, letting me know it is doing its thing, but I haven't seen |
| 3 |
one since the OpenRC migration... and because of the below error, I'm |
| 4 |
concerned that it may not be working properly... |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
Anyone? Did ntp/sntp change how it logs things? Or is this possibly due |
| 7 |
to my /var partition not being mounted yet (its on an lvm partition) |
| 8 |
when sntp tries to start? |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
It appears to be running, but like I said, I haven't seen anything in |
| 11 |
the logs about a time sync event since I rebooted yesterday after |
| 12 |
migrating to OpenRC: |
