@texttheater Die Unix-Philosophie besagt: "Do one thing, and do it well". Damit ist gemeint, dass jedes Kommandozeilenprogramm einen bestimmten Skopus haben sollte (#Orthogonalität). Durch Pipelines usw. lassen sich die Unix-Tools bei Bedarf kombinieren. Systemd hat statt dessen alles Mögliche wahllos integriert – oftmals in schlechterer Qualität. So musste ich erst neulich wieder #ntpd installieren, weil das in #systemd integrierte Pendant einfach nicht gut genug ist.

Speaking of my #NAS; I have a jail on my (#TrueNAS Core) NAS that runs a few proxying services, including an #ntpd. It has this in /etc/rc.conf:

ntpdate_enable="YES"
ntpd_enable="YES"

So ... why doesn't ntpd start at boot? service ntpd start starts it immediately. It hasn't started at boot for literally years, I have to start it by hand on every reboot. Why?
