Hi, I'm trying to configure NTP on several Red Hat Linux boxes without any success. I'm including some information about the configurations I'm working on. Does anyone has any idea of what might be wrong? or How to configure a Red Hat Linux box as an NTP server?.........
Thanks, Mario Siller. The IP address of my NTP server is 20.0.0.1. The configuration I have on the clients ntp.conf file is: server 20.0.0.1 authenticate no On the other hand the ntpd daemon on the server seem to be working ok. When I do a ntptrace on the server this is what I get: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------- [root@localhost root]# ntptrace localhost.localdomain: stratum 1, offset 0.000074, synch distance 0.01485, refid 'LCL' [root@localhost root]# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------- When I run a ntpdate from any client this is what I get: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------- [root@localhost log]# ntpdate -b -v -d -u 20.0.0.1 23 May 12:03:05 ntpdate[15169]: ntpdate 4.1.0 Wed Sep 5 06:54:31 EDT 2001 (1) transmit(20.0.0.1) transmit(20.0.0.1) transmit(20.0.0.1) transmit(20.0.0.1) transmit(20.0.0.1) server 20.0.0.1, port 123 stratum 0, precision 0, leap 00, trust 000 refid [0.0.0.0], delay 0.00000, dispersion 64.00000 transmitted 4, in filter 4 reference time: 00000000.00000000 Thu, Feb 7 2036 6:28:16.000 originate timestamp: 00000000.00000000 Thu, Feb 7 2036 6:28:16.000 transmit timestamp: c0974aec.ae66dbd7 Thu, May 23 2002 12:03:08.681 filter delay: 0.00000 0.00000 0.00000 0.00000 0.00000 0.00000 0.00000 0.00000 filter offset: 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 delay 0.00000, dispersion 64.00000 offset 0.000000 23 May 12:03:09 ntpdate[15169]: no server suitable for synchronization found [root@localhost log]# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------- Finally if I start up the ntpd daemon on any client and run the commands "ech rv | ntp" and ntpq -p this is what I get: [root@localhost log]# echo rv | ntpq status=c011 sync_alarm, sync_unspec, 1 event, event_restart, version="ntpd 4.1.0 Wed Sep 5 06:54:30 EDT 2001 (1)", processor="i686", system="Linux2.4.7-10", leap=11, stratum=16, precision=-16, rootdelay=0.000, rootdispersion=6.720, peer=0, refid=0.0.0.0, reftime=00000000.00000000 Thu, Feb 7 2036 6:28:16.000, poll=4, clock=c0974fd1.6db78cc9 Thu, May 23 2002 12:24:01.428, state=0, offset=0.000, frequency=0.000, jitter=0.015, stability=0.000 [root@localhost log]# [root@localhost log]# ntpq -p remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter ============================================================================ == taplab 0.0.0.0 16 u - 64 0 0.000 0.000 4000.00 [root@localhost log]# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------- _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
