Hi Pavel! I'm supplying now "-f" parameter by default file. On the other hand, as you also mention, the -s parameter is a piece of a different pie. Unfortunately, setting OpenNTPd to behave like this can be extremely dangerous on systems which "time jumps" can lead to important/serious/unrecoverable data loses. For instance, some applications make use of internal timestamps meant for securing data lifetime or for integrity (like some DB engines [mysql is one of them AFAIK]). I'm afraid you'll have to set an override on this file for your system :-( Although I like the functionality, you may also agree that it can be too risky.
