As I understand it, psync waits for Internet, but will timeout. So, if your Internet is not up soon enough, psync won't work.Sylvander wrote:For a long time now...
Been having a problem...
Display of time is nearly always 1 hour behind despite psync-2.10 being set to auto-sync.
I can use psync to correct the time, but at next boot, the time is again 1 hour behind.
Once in a while [1 in 50?], at the beginning of a new session, psync will auto-sync correctly, and the time is correct.
This is within Slacko-5.7.0-pae.
It is awhile since I looked at it, but I think that is still how psync works.
Back in 2016 I developed Qsync, which waits indefinitely for the Internet to come up. This is for my fork of Puppy, Quirky Linux, and more recently EasyOS.
Porting Qsync to Puppy is possible, but some of the infrastructure is different, and it would involve some work.
It might be simpler just to look at the timeout in psync and set it to wait a bit longer.
For the curious, this was my original post about Qsync:

though recently it has changed:
