Hi *,
I'm trying to understand, how netconfig and NetworkManager are playing together in openSUSE regarding ntpserver client settings.
NetworkManager calls "netconfig modify --service NetworkManager" and provides DNS settings. What netconfig does with it is out of scope for NetworkManager.
Yep, so far I did understand that (hopefully). [...]
As I found out, there is an nm module /usr/libexec/netconfig/netconfig.d/ntp- runtime, that is responsible for supplying ntpservers to chrony. But there seems to be a problem retrieving dynamically by dhcp assigned ntpservers
I already told you on another list that NetworkManager does not provide and NTP related information to netconfig.
[...]
It is not supposed to come from anywhere because NetworkManager does not use netconfig to manage NTP configuration.
This is, what I observed. What's confusing me, is that netconfig seems to rely on getting ntp information from nm!?!? At least the ntp-config module tries to read it from NetworkManager.netconfig. This is the reason, why I now asked on an openSUSE list instead of the nm list. [...]
Thx and bye. Michael.
