Hello
Jeff,
I am
not sure if NTP is broken on RH 7.2, but the following shows how I have it set
up.
Edit
/etc/nbd.conf as such;
server xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx prefer ---> add
stratum 2 server ip address here with the "prefer" comment
(add others for redundancy)
server 127.127.1.0 # local clock
fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10
server 127.127.1.0 # local clock
fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10
Edit
or create file /etc/ntp/step-tickers with the Stratum 2 IP addresses as
so;
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Restart the ntp server;
#
service ntpd restart
That
should be all you need. Run ntptrace and check the
results.
James

NTPd
Hi James,I am having some similar issues with a Redhat 7.2 - "2.4.9-31enterprise" Server. But in my case I can't get NTP to see the time servers I have defined, even though the box under it in the rack running FreeBSD sees them fine. Since it's 7.2 I am using /etc/ntp.conf as the config base, but when I run ntptrace the only server I see is 127.0.0.1 Can you maybe pass along some hints as to how you got this running, or did you just go to RH 9 ? Where NTP is supposedly fixed ? TIA, JMS. Jeffrey Silberberg
