Hi all,
I have troubles with a server getting time right. On boot the time is synchronized with the ntp-server of my ISP (xntpd is started at boot). After that nothing seems to be done any more. This machine has a clock, that runs about half an hour behind in 24 hours, so timesync is something, that could be usefull :-) The first thing to to is to check your logs: /var/log/ntp. This might give you an indication of the problem.
You probably should have more than one ntp server selected. Normally, at boot time, the system runs ntpdate to set your date, then while the system is operational it runs ntpd. Make sure that /usr/sbin/ntpd or /usr/sbin/xntpd is running. You can use the run level editor to enable this service. - -- Jerry Feldman <gaf@blu.org> Boston Linux and Unix user group http://www.blu.org PGP key id:C5061EA9 PGP Key fingerprint:053C 73EC 3AC1 5C44 3E14 9245 FB00 3ED5 C506 1EA9 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAGmyk+wA+1cUGHqkRAnfEAJ97VUPNy5+BSzuIo6Z7H+CnnL/RmACeLdyr u4tVeY6PGUEFwZ7OQjuFLgk= =SAP4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
