ok, i got a couple computers behind a linksys cable router. the way i setup ntp is really simple. on each computer, i set the step-ticker to clock.via.net in /etc/ntp/step-tickers. then i just had the service startup at boot time by using redhat's setup utility. my question is do i have to open up ports on my firewall? and if i open up a port, it will only work for one of the computers behind the firewall. can i configure ntp to use a certain port? i.e. computer A's ntp uses port 6001 and computer B's ntp uses port 6002? that way i can set my firewall to route certain ports to certain computers.
hmm, now that i think about it. if i can open up 1 port for ntp and config my router to send packets on that port to all computers, that would work right? since the packets should be the same for any computer since the time should be the same for both computers? thanks, christopher -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@;redhat.com?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
