I had this working many moons ago, but with new upgrades/installs, it's all

that's why it's driving me crazy).

Are you sure the "ntp" package has the NTP *server*, not just the client?

Since when have there been two different packages?

I was thinking along the lines of telnet and telnet-server.
If the ntp package (you can check in /usr/share/doc/ntp-whatever/) has the
server stuff, oops.

Try ntpq -p and see what it says. Should have something like this:
remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter

Isnt ntpdate just a client like rdate? You need ntpd runnung. try
"service ntpd start" and see what happens.
# rpm -qa|grep ntp
ntp-4.1.0-1mdk
#
ntpd (and ntpdate) are part of the above package. Usage is the same as
xntpd (and seem so similar it may just be a rename?)

I just went back and installed xntp3 on the server and life is good. I have
no idea why xntp3 stopped being bundled and was replaced with, what IMHO, is
an inferior ntp package. Can anyone shed some light on this?

the ntp stuff in lm now is the ntp4 release whereas xntpd uses ntp3 (4 should
be backwards compatible with 3), in normal usage the only difference is that,
as bill says, you need to have /etc/init.d./ntpd running and not as before,

Be aware that some versions of xntpd have a security hole. I think you
need to go back and reread the documentation for ntpd - ntpd is a
daemon, used to set both the time on your machine and can act as a
server for your network (I use it for both). Ntpdate is similar to
rdate (which uses the tim
