Thanks for the quick reply. ntpd does allow us to run this way. From the ntpd man page: -q Exit the ntpd just after the first time the clock is set. This behavior mimics that of the ntpdate program, which is to be retired. The -g and -x options can be used with this option. Note: The kernel time discipline is disabled with this option. The idea is to use it as ntp client. Thanks and Regards, Prashant _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
