How come it does not work:
sudo ntpdate -b ntp.ubuntu.com
27 Nov 16:54:38 ntpdate[21522]: no server suitable for synchronization found
sudo ntpdate -b pool.ntp.org
27 Nov 16:56:44 ntpdate[21523]: no server suitable for synchronization found
My understanding is that -b option should be used only when calling
ntpdate from a startup file at boot time and not from the cli. Try
running it from the cli w/o -b.
My understanding is -b forces immediate update of the clock, rather
than a rate adjustment. It should work from the command line. But:
sudo ntpdate pool.ntp.org
27 Nov 17:19:29 ntpdate[22256]: no server suitable for synchronization found
-Denis
If I remember correctly, the very first email in this thread said "no
network available". If that's true, you're sunk.
