Hello everyone, I'm trying to synchronize the system time with the help of rdate (openNTPD is on the list in case of failure). I have one problem, though: I connect to the Internet through a proxy server. I have set up the necessary environment, but I doubt that rdate listens to it:
localhost init.d # env | grep -i proxy http_proxy=proxy.address.dom:port ftp_proxy=proxy.address.dom:port rsync_proxy=proxy.address.dom:port https_proxy=proxy.address.dom:port localhost init.d # rdate pool.ntp.org rdate: couldn't connect to host pool.ntp.org: Connection refused Please advise on how to correctly specify the proxy server in the NTP server address. I am wondering if there is a syntax similar to proxy.address.dom:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Alternatively, how can I make rdate honour the proxy settings? Regards, Liviu -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
