ntp−wait − wait for NTP server to synchronize
ntp−wait [ −f ] [ −n tries ] [ −s sleep ] [ −v ]
ntp−wait waits until the locally running ntpd is in state 4 (synchronized). This could be useful at boot time, to delay the boot sequence until after "ntpd −g" has set the time.
−f |
Force hard failure if state is unknown. |
−n tries
Number of tries before giving up (default 1000 = 10min+)
−s sleep
Seconds to sleep between tries (default 6s = 10/min)
−v |
Be verbose. |
