Hi, I try to install ntpd (v4.2.0a) on our windows servers. On our W2K domain controllers, the ntpd won't get settle. The clock drift is over 500 ppm. After stopping ntpd, the clock is still drifting over 1000 ppm. However, after I rebooted the box, the ntpd acts normal and the drift is about 20 ppm. It happened on 3 DCs, but did not happen on other servers.
There are no other time services running besides ntpd. ntp.conf has sever command with iburst and driftfile command. ntpd is from Meinberg with -g option. What puzzle me is that after I stop ntpd the clock still went wild until reboot. Does ntpd change system/kernel even being stopped? Thanks for any help. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
