OpenNTPD not working with lastest snapshot(Dec 11)
-
I just upgraded my firmware from Dec 7th snapshot to the latest one (Dec 11) Everything is working fine. I went into my NAS log and noticed that its been failing to update the time every since i did the firmware update this morning. Just to be sure I re-installed pfsense back to 'pfSense_developers-1.2.1-RC2' (13Nov). My NAS updated its time fine from my pfsense box.. Did the update again, and the NAS failed to update its time. I checked my services and 'openntpd' is stopped and won't start. There are no logs of it not starting or failing.
Any ideas?

AFAICT, ntpd is running (try Diagnostics->Command: ps -A | grep ntp).
If you kill the ntpd processes (try Diagnostics->Command: kill pid pid etc), you can re-start the server from Services->OpenNTPD by selecting an interface and saving.
The service will not reflect as running under Status->Services. And it seems that you cannot start it from there ( eg. if the ntpd processes are killed as above).

thanks for your help. I noticed ntpd is usable about 10-15 mins after a reboot of my pfsense box but your right, its not showing in the services as running but using the ps command shows it is there.
