The current version of NTP is 4.2.4 and it hasn't been known as xntp since version 3. But that's not germane to your problem. > Computer A, run xntpd start, connect with server (S), update the hour > and It works correctly. > >ntpq> pe >remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter >================================================================= >emaddns1.endesa 0.0.0.0 16 u - 64 0 0.000 0.000 4000.00 >emaddns3.endesa 0.0.0.0 16 u - 64 0 0.000 0.000 4000.00 This ntpd has not been able to poll those two remote time servers (note the 0 in the reach column). It is possible that you did not allow enough time to elapse after starting ntpd. If you don't see any change in the reach, delay, offset, and jitter columns after ~5 minutes you have something blocking the NTP packets between your ntpd and the remote time servers. > Computer B, run xntpd start, connect with server (S), It updates the > hour but alone this time. > >ntpq> pe >remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter >================================================================= >emaddns1.endesa embal... 2 u 46 64 7 1.807 69662.4 15236.6 >emaddns3.endesa 0.0.0.0 16 u - 64 0 0.000 0.000 4000.00 Here, ntpd has polled 'emaddns1' 3 times and has determined that your clock off-set is 69662.4 ms, or 69.6 seconds. Again, you should allow some time to pass before using 'ntpq -p'. Ntpd will abort if it sees an offset greater than 1024 seconds (~ 17 minutes). If your version of ntpd supports the '-g' option you may want to add it to the ntpd command-line. Doing so will allow ntpd to make one step (usually the first one) of more than 1024 seconds. If you can't use '-g' you will need to use ntpdate to preset your clock before ntpd is started. -- Steve Kostecke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> NTP Public Services Project - http://ntp.isc.org/ _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
