I read through a recent thread on ntp and I've googled around but I
guess I'm not asking the right questions. I think I should have ntpd
working. I've added servers to ntp.conf edited /etc/conf.d/ntpd and
generally I think I've set things up right. Can someone interpret this
excerpt from the
Did you try a different server?
This is the two active lines from my ntpd. Everything else is commented
out. Substitute your own server for tick.uh.edu.
NTPDATE_CMD=ntpdate
NTPDATE_OPTS=-b tick.uh.edu

Yup, /etc/conf.d/ntpd is the same except for the server. If I stop ntpd
and do ntpdate [the server named] I get:
MRK root # ntpdate tock.usno.navy.mil
22 Mar 14:46:00 ntpdate[20695]: adjust time server 192.5.41.41 offset
-0.002197 sec
/etc/ntp.conf is all commented except for the 3 servers

Hi!
Is there any advantage of ntpd over rdate, when I just want to synchronize the time?
If anyone is interested, I set rdate like this in my crontab:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] pub $ cat /etc/crontab | grep rdate
0 0 */14 * * rdate -s ntp1.ptb.de
