It's Possible to m0n0wall includes this feature (NTP Server for lan clients)?

m0n0wall as NTP server

Thanks

Agreed.  It would be nice to have the m0n0wall to run an ntpd for internal time synchronization.

See the reason this isn't already included here:
http://doc.m0n0.ch/handbook/faq-goals.html

Those of you requesting it, you should see if that issue with msntp is still a problem. Maybe there's a newer release that fixes that.

Maybe OpenNTPD would be a better fit?  Very small footprint.

I use this as my NTP server, works for all my NTP clients, but I don't have any MS Windows boxes.  OpenNTPD does not support broadcast mode, only client/server mode.

as network & security manager i hope that m0n0wall will NOT include this kind of stuff and keep focused on the excellent job, FIREWALL.  Wink

I agree with bitonw...  If you have a small number of clients behind m0n0wall, then it would probably be best to just allow traffic from the LAN to pass through Port 123 (UDP) if it's been blocked...  And if you have a lot of clients, well, then you probably have a server setup somewhere .... maybe a log/DNS/mail/file server which could easily handle NTP redistribution for your LAN.

just use a ntp box in your DMZ for this job. make a outbound rule to allow traffic to this ntp box from your lan/trusted network.
