Hello, I currently try to get a HopfClock Serial 6020 to run with NTP under Linux SuSE 10.2.
This configuration already ran under Suse 9.1 and NTP version 4.2.0a successfully. Now I updated the system to Suse 10.2. and NTP version 4.2.2p4 (from scratch installation). Result: 1) Everything works with time servers from the Internet 2) The HopfClock writes a message into the /var/log/warn file and is not even listed (ntpq -p): Feb 8 20:45:07 earth ntpd[15469]: refclock_open /dev/hopfclock0: Operation not permitted Feb 8 20:45:07 earth ntpd[15469]: configuration of 127.127.38.0 failed I went through the sources, but I couldn't find any clue. My ntp.conf looks like that: ## Hopf DCF 6020 server 127.127.38.0 prefer mode 12 fudge 127.127.38.0 stratum 0 fudge 127.127.38.0 time1 0.020 fudge 127.127.38.0 refid DCF77_Hopf fudge 127.127.38.0 flag1 1 flag2 0 flag3 0 flag4 0 #fudge 127.127.38.0 flag1 1 flag2 0 flag3 0 flag4 0 stratum 0 time1 0.02 The soft link to /dev/hopfclock0 is available and I was able to capture the time signal of the clock with minicom terminal program. I tried everything with the permissions of the device - without success. Just for a try I changed to the Parse Clock (127.127.8.0) on /dev/refclock-0 with basically the same warning. I even installed in a quick and dirty act the NTP 4.2.0a version - with the same results. Question: What does the message "refclock_open /dev/hopfclock0: Operation not permitted" exactly mean? Do I have to compile something into my kernel which is probably not in yet? I really picked my brain and I suspect it has something to do with my kernel. Any clue is appreciated.
