Hello,
in system-config-date i have checkbox synchronize date before service
startup.
Which config switch,file does it affect? I want to turn it on on my CentOS
machine without xauth , just editing config files , i was hoping it could
be
in /etc/sysconfig/ntpd but no.
ok ... I do not see exactly where, but it seems that somewhere a -x switch is
set and the file /etc/ntp/step-tickers gets the server name to sync from.
I do no see a -x switch anywhere though
the -x switch is part of the init script. it isn't actually handled by
ntpd. the init script will use step-tickers if it has entries, or pull
the server lines from ntp.conf, and then invoke ntpdate with the list it
figures out.
