NTPD

2012-06-01 Thread Gordon Smith
Hi all

Could somebody refresh me as to how the NTPD command works in Terminal?  I'm 
trying to test out our time Server, just to make sure I have the access I need.

If anybody is interested, they are more than welcome to use our NTP time server 
to synchronise their computer's clock.  The address of the server is:
ntp.mac-access.net
or, if you'd rather use the IP address than go via DNS lookups:
109.224.207.79
is the IP where our NTP time server lives.

Thanks.

Gordon

Ntpdc is what I used. I think the sub command was peers status. I hope that's 
useful. I had this bash  script that I don't have anymore.

Hi Jonathan

I think it's a little different under OS X although I will try what you 
suggest.  It's been so long since I used that command.

Thanks.

RE: NTPD syntax; [Reminder Please?]

2011-08-17 Thread Jonathan Cohn
Ntpdc is the command to query ntpd.  Ntp.conf has the configurations. There are 
man pages for both.

Subject: NTPD syntax; [Reminder Please?]

Hello everybody

Could one of the terminal gurus out there please remind me how to:
1. quiz a NTP server for its response.
2. manually force the client machine to do an update using a specified ntp 
service.

Thank you.

Lynne
