Hi,
I have a network of devices that will spend time both with and without a
reliable time source. I have designated one as a server. The ntp.conf
is,
pidfile /var/run/ntpd.pid
driftfile /var/db/ntp.drift
tos minsane 1 minclock 1
disable auth
tos orphan 10
server 10.0.1.20
manycastserver 224.1.1.1
The other devices have an ntp.conf file of,
pidfile /var/run/ntpd.pid
driftfile /var/db/ntp.drift
tos minsane 1 minclock 1
tos orphan 10
disable auth
manycastclient 224.1.1.1
Everything works fine when the external server is present. When I kill
ntp on the external server the device configured as a manycastserver
refuses to believe that 10.0.1.20 is no longer responding
$ ntpq -p
remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset
jitter
========================================================================
======
*10.0.1.20 LOCAL(0) 5 u 18h 256 0 0.206 -0.243
0.000
Is this normal, what do I need to do to get orphan mode to kick in.
Thanks,
Neil
Using NTP 4.2.4p7
