OpenVPN client start with WAN - NTPC

[daviddhauwe]

I am using an RT-N66U 3.0.0.4.372.30_2 with an openvpn client that starts with wan connection. For the openvpn to work it is mandatory that the time of the router is correct. For some reason the ntpc service does not sync the time, even not after several hours. When I disable 'start with wan' on the openvpn client, the time is synced short after reboot.
So there is a problem when the openvpn client starts together with wan. I have a workaround to do an ntpclient sync in the wan-start script. But i want to fix the problem, because in my setup, when the rooter boots and the ntp server is not available, it will not work. See here a part of the system log. The openvpn connects to a non existing ip, that is why we have the connect errors, but this is not important I am more concered about: rc_service: skip the event: start_ntpc. I get also similar 'skip the event:reboot ' messages when I try to reboot, so I have to disconnect the power. Can anybody help?
