NM passes all information from the DHCP Server through ENV to the dispatchers. Unfortunately, I do not have access to any DHCP Setup with NTP Servers published (or to a DHCP Server were I could publish it), but I can already see in my dispatchers, that DHCP4_REQUESTED_NTP_SERVERS=1 is set... The patch provided sounds like overkill and will have at eternity be maintained downstream (/etc/netconfig.d/ seems rather suse specific. If you can come up with a dispatcher that does the right thing, this would be much easier to maintain. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Nothing else needed... except, somebody writing such a script with the possibility of testing them. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

# network manager writes the config file without the NTPSERVERS settings The scripts indicates that this solution looks like a half way workaround as

But you are still be forced to support the remaining netconfig support in NetworkManager and this patch will not much extend that required support. It only adds as single line to /var/run/netconfig/NetworkManager.netconfig. Here is a script which works for me on ipv4 networks: cat /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/ntp #!/bin/bash # # network manager writes the config file without the NTPSERVERS settings # if test -z "$DHCP4_NTP_SERVERS"; then exit 0 fi cfg=/var/run/netconfig/NetworkManager.netconfig grep -v "NTPSERVERS" $cfg >$cfg.$$ echo "NTPSERVERS='$DHCP4_NTP_SERVERS'" >> $cfg.$$ mv $cfg.$$ $cfg # update ntp settings /etc/netconfig.d/ntp-runtime This script should go on suse distros into the sysconfig package. main part is written by NetworkManager itself and the remaining by a dispatcher script. To really reduce required maintenance effort and if there are no other reasons against, I would mark NetworkManager netconfig support as deprecated yet and remove it in further release. /var/run/netconfig/NetworkManager.netconfig should be completely created by a dispatcher script for suse distros (any way to disable netconfig support in NetworkManager yes ?) If for some reasons, it is not possible to remove netconfig support from NetworkManager, please apply this fix. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
