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.
Did you remember to open the appropriate port in the firewall?
FW_SERVICES_EXT_UDP="ntp"
I haven't done much with the Firewall at all, so I'm not sure where to make that change. Could you help me on that one?
Why would there be a need to open the port on the -client-? You only need to open the port on the firewall if you are acting as a server with other computers needing to connect to you.
Noted. <sigh> Now I still need to figure out why YaST messed up when it connected on using CLI.
Maybe a deamon was already running? You cannot have two instances of ntpd/xntpd/ntpdate running at the same time.
I expected YaST to have control of the daemon(s). My expectations of what YaST should have done, and what it did are differing. Again from CLI it worked from YaST it reported a failure. Mike
