  23. I start xntp in /etc/rclocal, startet from init. But sometimes xntp doesn't
  24. come up after a reboot, so I use:
  25.  
  26. /etc/rc.local:
  27. ...
  28. if [ -x /usr/local/etc/ntpdate ]; then
  29.         /usr/local/etc/ntpdate ntps1-0 ntps1-1 ntps2-1
  30.         echo " ntpdate"
  31. fi
  32.  
  33. if [ -x /usr/local/etc/xntpd -a -f /usr/local/etc/ntp.conf ]; then
  34.         /usr/local/etc/xntpd -c /usr/local/etc/ntp.conf
  35.         echo " xntpd"
  36. fi
  37.  
  38. echo "ksh /etc/xntp.restart" | at now+2minutes
  39.  
  40. /etc/xntp.restart:
  41. ...
  42. ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep xntpd
  43. if [[ $? = 0 ]]
  44. then
  45.     echo "xntp Version 3 time service already running"
  46. else
  47.     echo "Starting xntp Version 3 time service..."
  48.  
  49.     if [ -x /usr/local/etc/ntpdate ]; then
  50.         /usr/local/etc/ntpdate ntps1-0 ntps1-1 ntps2-0
  51.         echo " ntpdate"
  52.     fi
  53.  
  54.     if [ -x /usr/local/etc/xntpd -a -f /usr/local/etc/ntp.conf ]; then
  55.         /usr/local/etc/xntpd -c /usr/local/etc/ntp.conf
  56.         echo " xntpd"
  57.     fi
  58. fi
