I edit the server's conf file. server 127.127.1.0 broadcast 20.1.1.255fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10 also start the ntp deamon with -A option. but still there is the same problem. i analyze the network and i can not see any ntp packages at the server side. it doesnot broadcast the ntp packages to the 20.1.1.255. what can be the problem. by the way do i need to give drift file to make broadcast server work?
