I am perplexed by a problem I am seeing with NTP.
I have a Redhat 6.0 system that works as expected. I have a Mandrake
7.1 system (which is being primed to take over from the Redhat one) with
an identical NTP configuration that doesn't seem to work.
The ntpq peers command on the Redhat system gives:
ntpq> peers
remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset disp
==============================================================================
*10.99.88.36 203.21.84.4 3 u 188 512 377 77.85 7.356 6.96
while on the Mandrake system:
ntpq> peers
remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset disp
==============================================================================
lancelot cougar.esec.com 3 u 12 1024 377 73.87 -8.589 3027.33
Plus:
ntpq> lassociations
ind assID status conf reach auth condition last_event cnt
===========================================================
1 18172 9014 yes yes none insane reachable 1
The names in the 2nd case are correct for the IPs in the first one.
A connection is obviously being made, and ntpdate works. But there is
no "*" in the listing from the Mandrake machine.
What could be causing this?
Brian.
