Is there a firewall blocking the requests in either direction? Does networki routing etc. work apart from this?

Hi, I have a problem with ntpd. I have a number of openbsd machines here and one of them is connected to a gps receiver which now (after a dirty hack) sets the time very precisely. I would love to sync all my other machines against the gps powered ntpd. Now the problem is that ntpdate (in linux) or ntpd's in other openbsd boxes don't simply work. ntpdate says this: sunrise:~# ntpdate fury 15 Jul 08:54:34 ntpdate[18841]: no server suitable for synchronization found Another openbsd machine (volatile) is configured to use fury (the machine with the gps receiver) as the server to poll for the time. This is what ntpd has to say about that: ntp engine ready reply from 10.0.5.30: not synced, next query 3151s no reply received in time, skipping initial time setting The problems range over openbsd and linux so I don't know what's broken. I'd say that ntpd has some issues with it. My config on the gps machine is # Addresses to listen on (ntpd does not listen by default) listen on * # sync to a single server #server ntp.example.org # use a random selection of 8 public stratum 2 servers # see http://twiki.ntp.org/bin/view/Servers/NTPPoolServers #servers pool.ntp.org sensor nmea0 and nmea0 is working ok, so no problem there. You just can't query the time from an openntpd instance. Am I doing something wrong? Would it help if I send dmesg's etc.? Is there some trick to just make ntpd work properly with external queriers? I've tried to figure this one out but am out of ideas now. best regards, Bo Granlund
