Default install with local_unbound and ntpd can't be functional with
incorrect date/time in BIOS:

Unbound requred correct time for DNSSEC check and refuseing queries
("Jul 1 20:17:29 yellowrat unbound: [3444:0] info: failed to prime trust anchor -- DNSKEY rrset is not secure . DNSKEY IN")

ntpd don't have any numeric IP of ntp servers in ntp.conf -- only
symbolic names like 0.freebsd.pool.ntp.org, as result -- can't
resolve (see above, about DNSKEY).

IMHO, ntp.conf need to include some numeric IP of public ntp servers.

That's not enough to configure unbound as a fully recursive DNS
server. If your system gets its address through DHCP, it is probably
getting DNS server addresses as well, and would work fine *without* your
configuring any of the DNS state.

All the normal reasons that hard-coding IP addresses is a bad idea; they
can change, you're encouraging a lot of people to use the same ones, etc.

What I am missing?
Need to fix unbound setup scripts? bsdinstall scripts?
As I see unbound setup scripts detects 127.0.0.1 in resolv.conf and
configured unbound as fully recursive DNS server.

I am have static address and don't getting DNS server address.

And how to resolve this issuse:

- default install with unbound as recursive DNS server (by default
enforcing DNSSEC)
- ntp time synchronisation
- stale CMOS time (2008 year)

Well there is a deadlock situation there so you have to relax one of the
conditions, for one time at least.

Your best bet is to do a manual ntpdate against a fixed ip of known
goodness. If you have a lot of machines you need to do this on, use ansible
or similar to do the heavy lifting for you. Ansible is best in my opinion
if you dont have anything setup as its quick to get going. It does require
python on the target machines so you would need to install that first.
Something like the following should get it working (as you dont have dns on
the target machine, package fetches wont work, so i would tunnel a squid
proxy and let that handle all the internet stuff.

add something like the following to your ssh_config

Host *
RemoteForward 31280 squid_server:3128

then run some stuff like this (after installing ansible on your
desktop/bastion host)

ansible -b -m raw -a '/usr/bin/env ASSUME_ALWAYS_YES=1 http_proxy=
http://127.0.0.1:31280 /usr/sbin/pkg bootstrap -f' -u root -i
<host_list_file> -kS --ask-su-pass

ansible -b -m raw -a 'env ASSUME_ALWAYS_YES=YES http_proxy=
http://127.0.0.1:31280 pkg install python' -u root -i <host_list_file>
-kS --ask-su-pass

ansible -m shell -a "ntpdate <good_ntp_server_ip>" -kS --ask-su-pass -i
<host_list_file>

from here on you should be able to start unbound and then ntpd eg

ansible -m service -a "name=local_unbound state=restarted"
-kS --ask-su-pass -i <host_list_file>
ansible -m service -a "name=ntpd state=restarted" -kS --ask-su-pass -i
<host_list_file

Alternatively you could just relax your dnssec rules on first boot to give
ntp a chance. Probably much easier 8)

Also make sure you are using the '-g' flag on ntpd

How I am do it? I am don't touch dnssec rules and don't know unbound.
May be this is posible by startup scripts?
Also, some platforms lack of CMOS time, RPi, for example.

> Also make sure you are using the '-g' flag on ntpd

Yes, I am add `ntpd_sync_on_start=yes` to rc.conf.
I am suggest do it by checkbox in bsdinstall.

Like i said you could configure ntpdate as well as ntpd, but give it a
known good ip. It will only run once at boot, and ntpd will start after so
that can use the nice pool names.

A slightly better way maybe to give ntpdate a server hostname like
ntp-server and populated the hosts file with one of the ips from
pool.ntp.org. You could then have a periodic script to check and update the
ip in the hosts every day, so it works over a reboot. The ip would
obviously have to have an initial seed value, but you could work this out
progmatically at system configuration time with tools like ansible.

What purpose don't do it by standart scripts from base systems?
Enforcing DNSSEC must be prevent this strange works on all systems
lack CMOS time.

I am not expert in sh scripting for this automation.

something as simple as this thrown in /etc/periodic/daily/ would probably
do it.

#!/bin/sh
ip=`dig pool.ntp.org +short | head -1'
cp /etc/hosts /etc/hosts.old &&
sed -e "s/.*ntp-server/$ip ntp-server/" /etc/hosts.old > /etc/hosts


with these lines in rc.conf
ntpdate_enable=yes
ntpdate_servers="ntp-server"

These suggestions are essentially insane because they're ignoring the
basic fact that the freebsd installer creates a non-working system. If
unbound requires DNSSEC, and DNSSEC requires good time, and good time
requires hostname resolution, then that circular dependency is a
problem that the freebsd project needs to fix, not something to be
hacked around by each individual sysadmin.

It is a bit disturbing to me that the project members who created this
situation have been silent in the face of *months* of reporting of it
by several different users.

running this at boot time may help as well

unbound-control set_option val-permissive-mode: yes

then after ntpd has started up run this

unbound-control set_option val-permissive-mode: no

Yes work around's, but work around's work by definition.

ntpd_sync_on_start=yes
unbound start in relaxed mode until time sinced
after ntp synced unbound switcheed to DNSSEC mode.
ntp re-resolved ntp server addrees

What wrong with this?
Some software need modification, yes.
This is price for DNSSEC enforcing.

Many systems don't have CMOS by design.

If the system lacks CMOS time it is hard to fix this problem. It is not
only about NTP+DNSSEC, but also about the lack of timekeeping. This
timekeeping problem can be solved by using a local ntp-server. That would
break the deadlock of NTP+DNSSEC.

I doubt that will happen as you are asking to pollute every release
installation for an edge condition when there is numerous work arounds
that would be acceptable to most. eg two lines in rc.conf will fix the

No, it won't. Most people will just give the system a valid DNS

You said that you configured 127.0.0.1 as your DNS server. You didn't
say how (or rather where) you did that, but if you had used the address
of a working upstream recursive server, I suspect there wouldn't have
been any problem.

Configuring 127.0.0.1 as DNS server and enabling loacal_unbound cause
unbound acts as recursive resolver. This is conventional setup.
("No forwarders found in resolv.conf, unbound will recurse."
-- from /usr/sbin/local-unbound-setup)

Using upstream recursive server with local unbound will cause same
problem, IMHO, because unbound will be enfocing DNSSEC by the same
way and rejecting all answers from upstream.

Pretty much every box requires some form of configuration so its a moot
point. IF you want automated deployment you will almost certainly be
building a pxe or prepreared usb/cd image of some sort. In which case you
include these settings in the deployed rc.conf.

Well, we know that is not the case, because in that case nearly everyone

That would be the point... maybe not "nearly everyone" although it is hard
to be certain, but I ran headlong into this when I tried to install --- and
thought I'd done something wrong until this thread, where I learned that it
doesn't work -out of the box-.

Already pointed about draw back using IP address of NTP servers.

ok. i.e. cut-off unbound from FreeBSD tree. We don't need unbound and
will always use name servers from upstream, yes?

I am want working setup after FreeBSD installer.

I think best solution is disable enforciment in case of STA_UNSYNC.

% ntptime
ntp_gettime() returns code 0 (OK)
time db0a9e2b.4bd3a1d4 Tue, Jun 14 2016 18:15:55.296, (.296198421),
maximum error 569983 us, estimated error 2912 us, TAI offset 0
ntp_adjtime() returns code 0 (OK)
modes 0x0 (),
offset 3993.151 us, frequency 0.240 ppm, interval 1 s,
maximum error 569983 us, estimated error 2912 us,
status 0x2001 (PLL,NANO),
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ -- OK, may be enforciment.
time constant 10, precision 0.001 us, tolerance 496 ppm,


Not only for unbound, for SSL too. And may be in the other places.

I'm playing catchup on my INBOX, so apologies in advance, if this has
already been satisfactorily answered...

May I suggest ntpdate(8)?
Find a reliable time server in your region, and once found add it
*early* in your rc.conf(5). Well, ahead of your unbound stanza. ie;

hostname="..."
ifconfig_re0="inet ... netmask ..."
defaultrouter="..."
ntpdate_enable="YES"
ntpdate_hosts="a reliable regional time server"

..

unbound_enable="YES"
..

ALSO. Since you're upstream will, in all likelihood have informed
you of a preferred set of 2 name servers. Place one of them in your
hosts(5) file. This will help ensure that ntpdate(8) can reliably
discover your regional time server.

That should get you where you want to go. :-)

Errr... The sequence of assignments in /etc/rc.conf* has no bearing on
the sequence in which /etc/rc starts things.

Please refer to rcorder(8) for further information on this.
