you may have to set up a 'restrict' statement for NTP, depending on what version you are using.
restrict default ignore restrict 127.0.0.1 server xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx restrict xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Add the restrict statements, and restart. use xntpdc to check how you are doing; peers, sysinfo, monlist should give you some ideas. In peers, your reach should be greater than 0 after some time. 377 means a good connection (again, this takes time). hope this helps. bob On Mon, Jan 26, 2004 at 03:45:18PM -0000, Purushotham, Vivek wrote: > Hi > > Apollogies ,but if any one can gimme some inputs . > > I am trying to implement NTP Client on Aix. > > Have made the necessary entries in ntp.conf > > broadcastclient > driftfile /etc/ntp.drift > tracefile /etc/ntp.trace > server XX.XX.XX.XX > > And have restarted the NTP subsystem.but still ,if i try an ntp trace. > > loopback: stratum 16, offset 0.000964, synch distance 1.01869 > 0.0.0.0: *Timeout* > > This obviously means its not reaching the NTP server. > > Could any one recomend any more actions. > > Thanks > > > > Vivek P > > > > > ********************************************************************** > IMPORTANT NOTICE > This e-mail message (including its attachments) is private, > is intended for the recipient named in it and may contain > material which is confidential and privileged.
