Subject:   ntpd vs ntpdate with no hardware clock
Message-ID:  <Zoq7xD2BRT6YyF6l@www.zefox.net>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
Just tried using ntpd with a fresh 14.1 installation on a Pi4.
Near as I can tell, ntpd reports a failure due to the clock
being off by too much, even if it's set manually to within
a minute before reboot. Probably that's caused by the lack
of a hardware clock on the Pi4, linux has a bodge called
fake-hwclock. Is there an equivalent workaround for FreeBSD?

In the meantime ntpdate seems to work, though deprecated

Thanks for reading,
