This behaviour has been remedied with an upgrade of the NTP software we ship, and a retooling of the way we generate ntp.conf. I have put back the fixes, and they will be in the 2014-07-24 build of SmartOS. > ------------ Remedy / Workaround ---------- > Do you have a /opt/custom/smf/ directory with your own startup script? > If no, see: <A > href="http://wiki.smartos.org/display/DOC/Administering+the+Global+Zone";>SmartOS > - Administering the Global Zone</A> You do not need to add a postboot script. If you provide the value "ntp_conf_file=ntp.conf" in your "/usbkey/config" file, and then provide a custom NTP configuration at "/usbkey/config.inc/ntp.conf", the system will use _that_ file instead of generating a new one from the "ntp_hosts" value. > This is certainly a bug in the SmartOS distribution.

The primary issue with the generation of the NTP configuration is essentially resolved. Additionally, we now have a set of official SmartOS-specific DNS names that we may ship in our default configuration. This set of names is graciously provided by the NTP Pool Project, and are: 0.smartos.pool.ntp.org 1.smartos.pool.ntp.org 2.smartos.pool.ntp.org 3.smartos.pool.ntp.org The new default configuration will make use of these values as of the 2014-07-24 build of SmartOS.
