You proposed to add the following to --help: +//usage: "\n If no peer is defined, ntpd will not run" Most network tools do the same (wget, ping...): they won't run when you give them unresolvable hostnames. Yet, we don't have such lines in each networking tool's help text. I take it its because that's the typical behavior: you try ping BOGUSHOSTNAME and you get abort, not DNS retries in hopes that BOGUSHOSTNAME will resolve. _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list busybox@busybox.net http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/busybox
