The only thing you would need to do is to add 2 server lines. I copied mine. There is a web site that has a list of public time servers. (http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/servers.html). If you are on the east coast, then the two servers, below might be ok. ## ## Outside source of synchronized time ## ## server xx.xx.xx.xx # IP address of server server 128.4.40.12 # louie.udel.edu server 130.126.24.24 # ntp-0.cso.uiuc.edu
The next step is to use the YaST run level editor to turn on the ntp daemon. Click on run level properties, then scroll to the bottom for xntpd, and turn it on for run levesl 3 and 5.
Hello, I've build a xntp-4.2.0 RPM package for SuSE 8.2. In addition to the use of latest xntp version, I've added a patch for chroot no-root user from Timo Felbinger, and the default ntp.conf is based on pool.ntp.org servers. See a part of 'ntp.conf' about servers: ## ## ## If you want to use pool.ntp.org uncomment following repeated lines. ## you can tune your servers seting a zone nearest to your ## country. See http://www.pool.ntp.org ## ## example of zones ## uk.pool.ntp.org ## de.pool.ntp.org ## europe.pool.ntp.org ## north-america.pool.ntp.org # server pool.net.org # server pool.ntp.org # server pool.ntp.org # server pool.ntp.org You can download the rpms: http://www.oxixares.com/~gbv/rpms/SuSE_8.2/xntp-4.2.0-5.i586.rpm http://www.oxixares.com/~gbv/rpms/SuSE_8.2/xntp-4.2.0-5.src.rpm Although I've installed it in my ntp server with success, use it as your own risk. I will build a SuSE_9.0 version when I completed my ftp download and installed it in a machine. ;-) Guillermo -- Guillermo Ballester Valor Linux user #117181.
