Hi, what's in the ntpd.drift file? What are the permissions on the file (to be sure)
With my NTP server it takes a while for it to be synchronised. Perhaps wait an hour or 2 and try again to sync, Cheers. -- Kind regards, Remko Lodder Elvandar.org/DSINet.org www.mostly-harmless.nl Dutch community for helping newcomers on the hackerscene mrtg.grunn.org Dutch mirror of MRTG -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Brian H Verzonden: woensdag 25 februari 2004 19:33 Aan: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Onderwerp: ntpd Greetings: I am trying to setup my bsd box as a ntp server. I basically want all machines on my local network to sync times with this bsd time server. I start the server with the command `ntpd -A -l /var/log/ntpd.log`. I verify that the server is running with ps and `netstat -na | grep udp`, but when I look in the logs i see the following /var/log/ntpd.log ---- ntpd 4.1.0-a Mon Oct 27 14:55:18 GMT 2003 (1) kernel time discipline status 2040 Un-parsable frequency in /etc/ntp.drift Any thoughts on what I can do to get this server working. when i try to sync from another machine on the network I get the following error: no servers can be used, exiting. Thanks, Brian setup ----- #i am not sure if i need to add anything to this ntp.drift file or not touch /etc/ntp.drift touch /etc/ntp.conf /etc/ntp.conf ------------- driftfile /etc/ntp.drift #bsd time server server 192.168.0.3 _________________________________________________________________ Take off on a romantic weekend or a family adventure to these great U.S. locations. http://special.msn.com/local/hotdestinations.armx _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
