You may also need to build NTP from source, if so there are a couple of header files that need copying in or PPS does not actually work.. I can't remember what they are but I mentioned them in an older post after getting my setup working. I'm using a GPS25 module, my setup for it in ntp.conf is: # NMEA Clock using Garmin GPS server 127.127.20.0 mode 1 version 4 prefer fudge 127.127.20.0 refid PPS flag2 1 flag3 1 time1 0.000 stratum 1 I also have a couple of local servers and pool servers configured to give NTP it's majority decision capability. You don't need a separate PPS device, it's built in to the NMEA refclock. You may need a symlink from the appropriate tty to pps0 and gps0 I'm using Centos 4.3 which uses udev, I added these lines at the end of /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules # Add symlinks for NTP service KERNEL="ttyS0" SYMLINK="pps0" KERNEL="ttyS0" SYMLINK="gps0" Robert Jenkins. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
