By default, OpenNTPd doesn't listen on any port, it just acts as a

for it to listen on port 123. time in inetd.conf refers to the UNIX
time protocol on port 37, which doesn't really have anything to do
with ntp. Uncomment the listen * line in /etc/ntpd.conf and then it'll
allow any box to sync time with it.

Thats what I had thought....so here is what I did with ntpd.conf:

# Addresses to listen on (ntpd does not listen by default)
listen on 192.168.10.1

...then rebooted (what the heck) and still it wont permit any time sync.
the clients still get connection refused.

Its ok though, I got it working via NTPD, but just didnt understand why openntpd has this issue. :-(

thanks for the reply.
