Hi, We're having an issue with an NTPD whereby it's defaulting (or whatever the correct terminology is) to the LOCAL clock, this is occurring when one of our servers loses connectivity. We have 4 server's setup and the local clock is also configured:
server 127.127.1.0 # local clock fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10 ntpq -p output: remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter ============================================================================== hostname .INIT. 16 u - 1024 0 0.000 0.000 0.000 hostname .INIT. 16 u - 1024 0 0.000 0.000 0.000 hostname .INIT. 16 u - 1024 0 0.000 0.000 0.000 hostname.INIT. 16 u - 1024 0 0.000 0.000 0.000 *LOCAL(0) .LOCL. 10 l 9 64 377 0.000 0.000 0.001 The issue with this is that once it defaults to the LOCAL, it doesn't sync with an external source again, until we manually restart ntpd. I'm sure this is something simple, but I'm hoping someone can assist.
