It will take some time before ntpd begins with syncing. Don't ask me why, but it took a day for me before my ntpd was beginning with syncing.

Hi all, I was just trying to setup an ntpd server for my home network so it could sync with each other. So here's what I have in my /etc/ntpd.conf: # $OpenBSD: ntpd.conf,v 1.7 2004/07/20 17:38:35 henning Exp $ # sample ntpd configuration file, see ntpd.conf(5) # Addresses to listen on (ntpd does not listen by default) listen on 192.168.1.1 # 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 asia.pool.ntp.org and here's the log from /var/log/daemon after I run the service: Apr 8 21:09:32 blowfish ntpd[14921]: listening on 192.168.1.1 Apr 8 21:09:32 blowfish ntpd[14921]: ntp engine ready Apr 8 21:09:51 blowfish ntpd[14921]: peer 203.123.49.3 now valid Apr 8 21:09:51 blowfish ntpd[14921]: peer 202.155.248.218 now valid Apr 8 21:09:51 blowfish ntpd[14921]: peer 61.129.66.79 now valid Apr 8 21:09:53 blowfish ntpd[14921]: peer 202.71.97.92 now valid Apr 8 21:09:53 blowfish ntpd[14921]: peer 60.56.119.79 now valid Apr 8 21:09:55 blowfish ntpd[14921]: peer 218.75.4.130 now valid Apr 8 21:09:56 blowfish ntpd[14921]: peer 61.129.90.164 now valid Even though it seems to be working, I still can't get the date to sync from clients. When I try to telnet to 192.168.1.1 on port 123, it says "Connection Refused". But the daemon is running on the server: % ps auxw | grep ntpd root 24933 0.0 0.2 428 600 ?? Is 9:09PM 0:00.00 ntpd: [priv] (ntpd) _ntp 14921 0.0 0.2 388 648 ?? S 9:09PM 0:00.02 ntpd: ntp engine (ntpd) Can anyone pleae help me out? Thanks in advance.
