ogxbox-sntp-proxy

Proxies SNTP to an NTP server. The purpose of this was to allow original Xboxes to get time updates without them having a proper NTP client.

I'm not sure I'd recommend anyone actually use this. This is more of a proof of concept than a real tool.

Install

On a linux system with systemd.

1. Create an sntpd user
2. Deploy sntp_proxy.py to wherever you want. e.g. /usr/local/sbin/sntp_proxy.py
3. Deploy the systemd unit file to /etc/systemd/system/sntp-proxy.service
4. Edit ExecStart= to the path you deployed the proxy to.
5. Edit the NTP server variable at the top of sntp_proxy.py to a real NTP server.
6. systemctl daemon-reload
7. systemctl enable --now sntp-proxy.service
