<div dir="ltr">For what it's worth (I haven't followed this whole thread) , while not an app_rpt system, we send out a command at the same time every day (generated from a node with internet) to sync the clocks on all the linked repeaters. All the other nodes take that command and know it's exactly 3am (or whatever time) and adjust themselves accordingly. Not sure if something like that would work in app_rpt or in your instance... just an idea.<div><br><div><br></div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Oct 31, 2014 at 7:03 AM, Doug Crompton <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:doug@crompton.com" target="_blank">doug@crompton.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

The problem was NO Internet in this case so ntp would not work. Manual setting of the date while Asterisk is not running or doing an Asterisk restart after changing the date is the answer.<br></font><br><b><font style="font-size:16pt" size="4">73 Doug</font><font style="font-size:16pt" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size:16pt" size="4">WA3DSP</font><font style="font-size:16pt" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size:16pt" size="4"><a href="http://www.crompton.com/hamradio" target="_blank">http://www.crompton.com/hamradio</a></font></b><font style="font-size:16pt" size="4"><br></font><br><br><div>> Date: Fri, 31 Oct 2014 08:39:32 -0500<br>> From: <a href="mailto:ars.w5omr@gmail.com" target="_blank">ars.w5omr@gmail.com</a><br>> To: <a href="mailto:app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org" target="_blank">app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org</a><br>> Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] Beagle bone black and timedatectl<div><div class="h5"><br>> <br>> <br>> On 10/27/2014 03:24 PM, Mike Lussier wrote:<br>> > Good afternoon to all.<br>> > I have posted on this issue before.
