Ah I see msntp is installed, but it doesn't quite provide the same functionality, since I don't want to ssh into my squeezebox and type a command everytime the time drifts.
This page: http://www.linuxcertif.com/man/1/msntp/ suggests one can start a daemon to do this automatically via the command: msntp -a -x ntpserver.somewhere > output 2>1 --this does indeed seem to start a daemon. However I don't see how to make this run at boot time. Before (with the method of Jean, above) we added a command to /etc/init.d/rcS However if I add: msntp -a -x pool.ntp.org > output 2>1 & or /usr/sbin/msntp -a -x pool.ntp.org > output 2>1 & to /etc/init.d/rcS (instead of /etc/init.d/ntpclient start &, that we had before) then it doesn't seem to work---i.e. there is no daemon running when I ssh in to check (via ps -e | grep ntp). cfuttrup wrote: > Just so that future readers of this thread can be helped in the best > possible way. > For the latest setups NTP is already installed in the Touch. > > I have: > Player Model: Squeezebox Touch > Firmware: 7.7.2-r9663 > > On the Squeezebox Touch > Go into settings - advanced on the Touch itself and re-enable "remote > login" > Notice the password provided to you > > Run putty -ssh root@squeezebox (where squeezebox = IP address in your > setup) > Enter the provided password > > NTP is already installed ... type "ls -la /usr/sbin/m*" > There's msntp ... > You can (directly) execute /usr/sbin/msntp -r pool.ntp.org > The device time is updated. > > /Claus ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Phil168's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=39348 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87588 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
