I've been trying to set up my 10.0 machine as an ntp client. The software is installed but when it tries to validate a server (I've tried several in the Canada and the U.S) it tells me it cannot reach the server. Addresses are provided by YaST's NTP Client module. Has anyone success in setting up 10.0 with a N.A. time server?
works fine here. I did have an issue with one server, but it works on others. Remember the command is different than it was in 9.3 and previous.

It took a bit of fussing, but the command line worked. here's the info linux:/home/Mike # /etc/init.d/ntp start Starting network time protocol daemon (NTPD) done linux:/home/Mike # /etc/init.d/ntp status \Checking for network time protocol daemon (NTPD): running linux:/home/Mike # /etc/init.d/ntp ntptimeset Can't set time while ntpd is running failed linux:/home/Mike # /etc/init.d/ntp stop Shutting down network time protocol daemon (NTPD) done linux:/home/Mike # /etc/init.d/ntp ntptimeset Try to get initial date and time via NTP from ntp2.cmc.ec.gc.ca done linux:/home/Mike # /etc/init.d/ntp status Checking for network time protocol daemon (NTPD): unused linux:/home/Mike # /etc/init.d/ntp start Try to get initial date and time via NTP from ntp2.cmc.ec.gc.ca done Starting network time protocol daemon (NTPD) done I've got a question about NTP and the firewall (I haven't made any firewall changes), but I'm wondering why it connected to the server from CLI and not in YaST.
