[-- Attachment #1 --] Noticed recently (in both my upgraded and newly-installed hosts) that the leap-seconds.list file is in danger of expiration very soon (12/28). It appears the default download location in /etc/defaults/rc.conf ( https://www.ietf.org/timezones/data/leap-seconds.list) no longer carries this file, or at least it says plainly so when I try to fetch it. I've been able to work around it locally by setting ntp_leapfile_sources=" https://hpiers.obspm.fr/iers/bul/bulc/ntp/leap-seconds.list" in /etc/rc.conf from IERS, though in searching where to fetch this there are questions of copyright in regards to distribution so while this should work for end-users I don't know how applicable this would be upstream (submitted https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=275737). I figured I'd throw it out here for visibility to operators as my workaround should work in that case. -Michael Proto [-- Attachment #2 --] <div dir="ltr">Noticed recently (in both my upgraded and newly-installed hosts) that the leap-seconds.list file is in danger of expiration very soon (12/28).
