meinberg dcf77 compatible clock

[folkert]

Hi,

Today I connected a meinberg dcf77 compatible receiver.
ntpsec refused to use it in its default (ubunt-)configuration:

    ntpd[4607]: REFCLOCK: PARSE receiver #0: parse_start: open of /dev/refclock-0 failed: Permission denied

even if chmod'ed it rwrwrw it didn't work.
Only after I removed O_NOCTTY in ntpd/refclock_generic.c it would start.
The receiver is connected via USB (I'm aware that that is bad for
timekeeping) as /dev/ttyUSB0 and I made a symlink to refclock-0 for
that.


regards
