Ok so I was scouring the internet trying to figure out why my ntpd server
was not working.. in fact it was not running at all..  

 

When I manually run it '/usr/sbin/ntpd -4 -c  /etc/ntpd.conf'   it runs
great

 

So I looked into the S30 script and found out the reason why it wont work.
I have no EXTIF defined or running (and I don't want one).

 

At some point I may want an EXTIF but right now im wanting to run local and
gain internet access through the customer's LAN.

 

In my rc.elocal  I had to add the line 'route add default gw
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx'  to get a gateway to the internet.

 

I was hoping there would be a config option for that.

 

I could also put a line in there to start up my ntpd. But im looking to try
and do things the right way and not so much a hack..

 

(mainly so it isn't so tough when someone needs to change an IP or gateway
its all done in the same config or perhaps lonnie's gui).

 

The obvious answer I will hear is to run an EXTIF and no INTIF..  but I need
a DHCP server running.. and also the time server listening on the
interface..

 

What is the correct way for me to do what im looking to do?

 

Currently I have EXTIF=""  and INTIF="eth1"  and this works for the phone
system side no issues.  just other things it wants to break.
