Yes, I have with IPv4. It is easiest to set-up if you use symmetric keys instead of Autokey. Each node in the "orphan mesh" can use the following files: -------------------------------------8X------------------------------------- # /etc/ntp.conf, configuration for ntpd # IPv4 Multicast + Symmetric Keys + Orphan mode # Adjust for your OS driftfile /var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift # Symmetric keys keys /etc/ntp.keys trustedkey 1 # Orphan Mode tos orphan 5 # Multicast "mesh node" - the order of these directives is critical multicastclient 224.0.1.1 broadcast 224.0.1.1 key 1 # Add some server lines here for those systems that will be synchronized # to remote time servers or local ref-clocks. Append iburst to the # server lines for remote time servers. -------------------------------------8X------------------------------------- # /etc/ntp.keys 1 M your_shared_password -------------------------------------8X------------------------------------- Please note that you must configure routing for the multicast address on all of the systems in the "orphan mesh". FWIW I'm currently running Manycast (w/ Symmetric Keys) / Orphan mode (over IPv6) on my LAN. ... -- Steve Kostecke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> NTP Public Services Project - http://support.ntp.org/ _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
