Hi ferran
If you are running a GUI:
--- Code: ---echo "sudo ntpd start" > ~/.X.d/StartNTP
--- End code ---
If you are running in text mode:
--- Code: ---echo "sudo ntpd start" >> ~/.profile
--- End code ---

Thank you again Rich. I'm sure that it will work when i restart the computer.

Actually, what the extension needs is a startup script in/usr/local/etc/init.d/. Even without it you should still be starting it as a system daemon in /opt/bootlocal.sh. The userspace login scripts are not intended to be the place to start system background processes that run listeners on restricted ports meant for use by everyone logged into (or who can connect to) the system.

In my humble opinion (I've only been in TC 1 month) what has shocked me most about TC is that we don't have a configuration wizard (as in any other linux distribution) to detect your hardware and install everything you need to have a time zone, a clock server (if you don't have a clock battery in your PC) or the ALSA or if you want the Xvesa or the Xorg, if you have Nvidia, printers, usb, etc.etc.
Well... this is another history.

Maybe because you haven't written it yet? Not every distro has been around two decades and has scores of contributors. Sadly, this forum gets WAY more requests than offers.
