NTP settings not persistent
I can't seem to get a persistent NTP setting. Whenever I click on the Device Time gear icon, the NTP seetting are always unchecked. I enable it, add some ntp servers and a message disaplays that NTP ...
Yes, it should all be fixed in 6.7.0, which is currently available as a public beta.
Oh crap. I use an ad blocker and don't see any popups So sorry about that, I'll try to upload it somewhere else.
EKroboter, is your NAS on an isolated network?
I've connected two of the four NICs. One has a private static IP address, with no gateway or DNS configured, and my other I haven't even configured, so it's got an APIPA address. You know how sometimes appliance firmware developers assume all of us will connect our devices to the Internet, and their code might trip up if a gateway or DNS setting is missing.
In my case, though, time is not syncing. I don't get a message popup, or anything in the logs, saying that NTP is working. In fact, there is just one log entry from when I first started this up saying NTP is disabled.

Clearly using an internet NTP server requires both a connection that reaches the internet and a DNS server.
His problem sounds different than yours - he's entering the NTP servers, and that appears to work (once). Then the setting reverts back to not using NTP.
