Andreas Müller 080887cf4a ntp: disable automatic panic shutdown for ntpd
Taken from [1]:

"However, if the difference between the client time and server time is greater
than the panic threshold, which defaults to 1000 s, the daemon will send a
message to the system log and shut down without setting the clock."

On RTC-less or 'fresh' systems with unpredicatble inital date ntpd will stop
with work undone (note: I did NOT find the message mentioned above - so it
took long way to fix). This is a wide use case for using NTP in production:
No need for initial datetime setup by some operator.

meta-networking
===============

This layer is intended to be a central point for networking-related
packages and configuration.  It should be useful directly on top of
oe-core and compliments meta-openembedded.  It should be primarily useful
to the following groups:

      - Anyone building a small networking device (eg. a home router /
        bridge / switch).

      - Anyone wanting to add network services to their device (eg.
        anything that might benefit from a small ftp/tftp server)

Dependencies
------------

This layer depends on:

URI: git://github.com/openembedded/oe-core.git
branch: master
revision: HEAD

Maintenance
-----------

Please see the MAINTAINERS file for information on contacting the
maintainers of this layer, as well as instructions for submitting patches.
