I must be missing something, I am moving my ntp server from freebsd to SuSE 10.0 becuase the freebsd box will be retired. I have everything setup and ntp running but for some reason the other unix box's can't bind to the ntp server and sync off of it. I have done this a million times with freebsd but I can't figure out what is different with SuSE. rcntp status Checking for network time protocol daemon (NTPD): running when I run ntpdate from an of the unix boxes I get this back ntpdate ntpserver 29 Jul 16:57:13 ntpdate[24948]: no server suitable for synchronization found /etc/ntp.conf server 0.north-america.pool.ntp.org server 1.north-america.pool.ntp.org ## Generic DCF77 clock on serial port (Conrad DCF77) ## Address: 127.127.8.u ## Serial Port: /dev/refclock-u ## ## (create soft link /dev/refclock-0 to the particular ttyS?) ## # server 127.127.8.0 mode 5 prefer ## ## Undisciplined Local Clock.
