I hope that "port 13" was a typo!!!! NTP uses port 123. If that's not open, ntpd won't work!!!!!!!!!!!!! You can use ntpdate to "ping" a server. It will set your clock unless you use the "-d" switch. If ntpd is running, you need to use "ntpdate -du" which will use a non-privileged port. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
