chrony-helper was a script included in some distribution packages,
mainly to support configuration of NTP servers from DHCP. It was not
included in the upstream chrony repository.
It was superseded by the sourcedir directive. If chrony.conf contains
sourcedir /run/chrony-dhcp
an NTP server obtained from DHCP can be added to a running chronyd
instance by:
# echo "server 192.168.1.123 iburst" > /run/chrony-dhcp/eth0.sources
# chronyc reload sources
and removed by:
# rm /run/chrony-dhcp/eth0.sources
# chronyc reload sources
