I am having problems with ntpd on Red Hat 8.0.
I have an 8.0 client on which ntpd can't get the time. I have an ntpd running on my basement server (RH 7.0) and it used to supply time just fine before I upgraded my client, also I told my DSL router box to get its time from my basement server and it managed it just fine. So I think the server is working. As for the client, I don't have any firewall blocks set up on it: # iptables --list Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination # I can do ntpdate from this 8.0 machine: # ntpdate borg.org 31 Jan 12:24:38 ntpdate[12401]: adjust time server 192.168.100.2 offset -0.039216 sec # But nptd isn't happy: # ntpd -d create_sockets(123) interface <lo> OK interface <eth0> OK bind() fd 4, family 2, port 123, addr 0.0.0.0, flags=1 bind() fd 5, family 2, port 123, addr 127.0.0.1, flags=0 bind() fd 6, family 2, port 123, addr 192.168.100.101, flags=1 init_io: maxactivefd 6 resolving borg.org report_event: system event 'event_restart' (0x01) status 'sync_alarm, sync_unspec, 1 eve\nt, event_unspec' (0xc010) auth_agekeys: at 1 keys 1 expired 0 peer_clear: at 2 assoc ID 0 newpeer: 192.168.100.101->192.168.100.2 mode 3 vers 4 poll 6 10 flags 1 1 ttl 0 key 0000\0000 transmit: at 8 192.168.100.101->192.168.100.2 mode 3 auth_agekeys: at 60 keys 1 expired 0 transmit: at 71 192.168.100.101->192.168.100.2 mode 3 auth_agekeys: at 120 keys 1 expired 0 transmit: at 134 192.168.100.101->192.168.100.2 mode 3 auth_agekeys: at 180 keys 1 expired 0 transmit: at 200 192.168.100.101->192.168.100.2 mode 3 auth_agekeys: at 240 keys 1 expired 0 transmit: at 266 192.168.100.101->192.168.100.2 mode 3 auth_agekeys: at 300 keys 1 expired 0 transmit: at 329 192.168.100.101->192.168.100.2 mode 3 Leaving that running, wait a bit, and in another buffer: # ntpq -p remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter ============================================================================== borg.org 0.0.0.0 16 u - 64 0 0.000 0.000 4000.00 # Here is my /etc/ntp/conf (with comments removed to save space): restrict default ignore restrict 127.0.0.1 server borg.org fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10 driftfile /etc/ntp/drift broadcastdelay 0.008 authenticate yes keys /etc/ntp/keys I tried deleting the "authenticate yes" line but that didn't help. I also tried the same thing using time.nist.gov. I can do "ntpdate time.nist.gov" and it works, but putting "time.nist.gov" in /etc/ntp.conf and running ntpd doesn't work. Suggestions? (Does nptd work for others on 8.0?) Thanks, -kb, the Kent how had this problem in 7.3 too. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
