ok, here's the situation. two computers on my lan: criticalsection and semaphore. well, there are actually more, but once i get these two working, i can get the rest working. criticalsection syncs to external sources:
[root@criticalsection root]# ntpq -p remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter ============================================================================== ns1.utexas.edu time.ots.utexas 2 u 35 64 3 9.510 4.360 0.478 ns2.utexas.edu time.ots.utexas 2 u 25 64 3 18.788 8.924 2.206 ntp.tacc.utexas time.ots.utexas 2 u 24 64 3 18.308 8.761 3.389 ntp3.tamu.edu ntp1.tamu.edu 2 u 27 64 1 89.796 14.424 0.015 fnbhs.com time-B.timefreq 2 u 33 64 3 345.933 -33.896 110.892 [root@criticalsection root]# now the problem is getting semaphore to sync to criticalsection. [root@semaphore root]# ntpq -p remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter ============================================================================== criticalsection 0.0.0.0 16 u - 64 0 0.000 0.000 4000.00 [root@semaphore root]# iptables is turned off on both computers since i'm behind a hardware firewall. here is the ntp.conf for criticalsection: [root@criticalsection root]# cat /etc/ntp.conf restrict 127.0.0.1 server ntp1.utexas.edu server ntp2.utexas.edu server ntp.cc.utexas.edu server ntppub.tamu.edu server ntp.fnbhs.com driftfile /etc/ntp/drift broadcastdelay 0.008 authenticate no [root@criticalsection root]# here is the ntp.conf for semaphore: [root@semaphore root]# cat /etc/ntp.conf restrict default ignore restrict 127.0.0.1 server 192.168.1.100 driftfile /etc/ntp/drift broadcastdelay 0.008 authenticate no [root@semaphore root]# thanks so much for the help, this problem has been plagueing me for a long time! -- christopher -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@;redhat.com?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
