Problems with kiosk client time... [Solved]

[casystems]

I have several devices that have nearly 2 minutes time difference on the client kiosk...how often does it attempt to synchronise the time and also what is the threshold at which it determines that the time needs changing?

Hello casystems,

Kiosk syncs the time only once during boot.

Use the parameter below to do it more often, e.g. every 12 hours:

Code: Select all

run_command=(sleep 12h; ntpdate pool.ntp.org; ) &

Thanks

actual command need is:

Code: Select all

run_command=( while true; do sleep 12h; ntpdate pool.ntp.org; done; ) &

otherwise, it doesn't repeatedly sync, just once after 12 hours after boot!

Trivial mistake on my side

Thanks for fixing it.
