| Summary | 0018751: Remove syswatch dependency |
| Description | The syswatch service is needed for:
- Multi-WAN
- Reconnecting WAN connections (notably, PPPoE connections)
- Generating the "Network Connected" event, which is used top:
- Sync the clock
- Restarting NTP - http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Support/ConfiguringNTP#Section_6.13. [^]
- Restart services that don't handle disappearing pppoe interfaces (Snort)
- Updating antimalware signatures
Though syswatch is a core network service on a typical ClearOS system, it might be unwanted in some barebones environments (read: ClearVM). Migrate syswatch dependency to other packages. |
