Just change the source: ---8<--- /* check the timestamp in the packet */ packet_time=(time_t)ntohl(receive_packet.timestamp); time(¤t_time); //if(packet_time>current_time){ // syslog(LOG_ERR,"Dropping packet with future // timestamp."); // /*return;*/ // close(sock); // if(mode==SINGLE_PROCESS_DAEMON) // return; // else // do_exit(STATE_OK); // } //else{ packet_age= abs ( (unsigned long)(current_time-packet_time) ); syslog(LOG_ERR,"Time diff: %lu seconds", packet_age); if(max_packet_age>0 && (packet_age>max_packet_age)){ syslog(LOG_ERR,"Dropping packet with stale timestamp - packet was %lu seconds old or new.",packet_age); /*return;*/ close(sock); if(mode==SINGLE_PROCESS_DAEMON) return; else do_exit(STATE_OK); } // } ---8<--- If you want, you can see now the "Time diff" in the syslog. Workes for me.
Perhaps that should be an option in the next release!
