It's also possible to use NTP multicast but, again, I don't know
if openSUSE can use it. NTP can use it, no probs.
I have just set up my desktop system to multicast NTP on both IPv4 and IPv6. I can see them coming into the notebook computer, but have no way to determine if they're being used. When setting up NTP in Yast, there is an incoming broadcast setting, but haven't tried it.
"ntpq -pn" will tell you if they're being used.
