Description Tim Fechtner 2006-04-13 12:33:08 UTC

- Start YaST
- Network Services / NTP client
- choose a single server by adress (not the "pool" option), here Germany / ptb2
- save the changes
- another time Network Services / NTP client: the formaly choosen server adress is displayed
- choose complex configuration

Here is only the local clock awaible.

It seems that informations made in complex configuration are applied correctly, but when you want to change the configuration, they aren't displayed anymore.

When choosing the pool option and then switching to complex configuration, the things are a little bit different: the default options for "pool" seem to be applied always. This means when you choose "pool" and than complex configuration, everything is displayed correct (3 server entries). Then you make a change to these entries (for example disable "get initial time from this server" for all servers). Then you click "finish". The options are applied correctly. On the next boot, the initial time really isn't get from the servers. But when you reopen then in yast the ntp configuration and go to complex configuration and edit one of the server entries, then "get initial time from this server" is checked - also this isn't true for the actually working configuration.

Martin, can you help here?

Already fixed :)

- Switching from simple to complex configuration was eating server
  entries (#165149).
- 2.13.6

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Now I see the point of "get initial time from this server"
You are trying to change the automatically added "Pool NTP org" servers.

- Leaving the 'initial_sync' and 'options' for pool.ntp.org feature
  without change when user has previously changed them (#165852).
- 2.13.7

Comment 5 Tim Fechtner 2006-04-25 14:35:29 UTC

Is only partially fixed in RC2.

Do the following:

YaST -> NIS-conf -> choose Public NTP / Spain / hora.oxixares.com (Spain)

Finish

YaST -> NIS-conf -> choose Public NTP / Germany / tack.fh-augsburg.de

Now open complex configuration: showed is the (spanish) configuration who was saved and applyed the last time with "finish", and NOT the newly made (german) configuration.

Reopening. Changing version from beta9 to RC2.

Sorry, but you cannot allways reopen the bug if it's related to the ntp-client :)
If you have anothr bug, open another bugreport. This one was about "NTP configuration / complex configuration: options lost"

Your bug is about switching from simple to complex configuration.

Done. The rest is working fine, so I set to verified.
