Why Mageia Linux 7 RC 1 (updated 25 June 2019), does not have NTP servers from NTP.br?


NTP servers from NTP.br - according to:


Brazilian users will have convenient list of ntp servers maintained by - "NTP.br - A Hora Legal Brasileira, via Internet" offered by country server menu in MCC (Mageia Control Center) NTP config module.


Add NTP.br in Mageia 7 Final: http://www.ceptro.br/CEPTRO/EnglishHome#NTP_br_Brazilian_Legal_Time_over

Thank you!

NTP.br: pool.ntp.br - More used. 


NTP Pool Project: https://www.pool.ntp.org/zone/br - Less used.

I don't know where we get our list of ntp servers from, from the ntp package or not. CC'ing some people who know more about this than me.

@ drivalinux

What is wrong with the br.pool.ntp.org ntp servers, that we _do_ have?

While this is an interesting project, we use the worldwide servers of the NTP pool project project, which allows automatic finding of a nearby server using the pool.ntp.org DNS name. You can see there are 33 servers in Brazil :

https://www.ntppool.org/zone/br

I feel the ntp.br project should work with the world wide project, so that it's servers are used by any ntp software. You can contact them here :

https://manage.ntppool.org/manage

So this bug is invalid

Resolution: (none) => INVALID
Status: NEW => RESOLVED

I understand.


NTP.br: The official NTP of Brazil.


Thank you!

http://www.ntp.br - NTP.br (Brazilian Legal Time over Internet), provided by the National Observatory.


Thank you!

I'm using Mageia Linux 7 Final (released 23 June 2019 / updated 30 June 2019), and the system complies with this bug.


Thank you!
