Hello Martin, Thanks for your reply it was exactly what you suspected. Perhaps one remark for the community: I got the HopfClock Serial 6020, which actually doesn't work with the HopfClockSerial Driver (127.127.38.0), but with the Generic DCF77 Driver (127.127.8.0) because this clock can not be switched to GMT-format. Reason being: The hopf driver covers all clocks starting with 6021 upwards. Strange but that's life.

For a first test you can stop AppArmor and see whether ntpd then works correctly. If AppArmor shall be used it must be configured to allow access to the refclock for ntpd: Yast2 -> Novell AppArmor -> Edit Profile Select profile /usr/sbin/ntpd Add entry: /dev/??? # where ??? must be the device /dev/hopfclock0 points to Mark allow for: Read, Write, Link This generates a new entry: /dev/??? rwl Please note the symbolic links (e.g. /dev/hopfclock0) are also created new after every reboot. If this doesn't appear to happen you must create an udev rule for this.
