You didn't mention which time of VM you are using, but normally it is better to run ntpd only in the "host ESX" for VMware, Dom0 for Xen, etc. See: http://xen.epiuse.com/xen-faq.txt http://www.nabble.com/Unable-to-set-system-clock-on-domU-td22042252.html > I have the following configuration. > > And in the /etc/ntp.conf, I have the following line: > > restrict default ignore > restrict 127.0.0.1. > server time1.server > server time2.server > > Whenever I have this line, the server is not able to synchronize its time... > So far as I understood, this line prevents other servers using this machine > as a time server.

( firewall for tcp and udp ports 123 is open) You need to add restrict lines for each host that you don't want the default restrict line permissions to apply, such as: restrict time1.server restrict time2.server Regards, -- -Chuck _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
