I experimented for a few hours with a local "sandbox" network, and
here's the configuration I finally found out.
Server (192.168.1.2 = bernadette):
--8<---- /etc/ntp.conf ----------------
driftfile /var/lib/ntp/drift
logfile /var/log/ntp.log
server 0.fr.pool.ntp.org
server 1.fr.pool.ntp.org
server 2.fr.pool.ntp.org
server 3.fr.pool.ntp.org
restrict default kod nomodify notrap nopeer
restrict 127.0.0.1
restrict 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0
--8<-----------------------------------
Client (192.168.1.3 = raymonde):
--8<---- /etc/ntp.conf ----------------
driftfile /var/lib/ntp/drift
logfile /var/log/ntp.log
server bernadette
restrict default ignore
restrict 127.0.0.1
restrict bernadette
--8<-----------------------------------
If I understand correctly, the whole setup works OK as soon as ntpq -p
shows me a list of servers, and at least one of them has a little * star
in front of the line (which can take a few minutes to appear).
I'm open for suggestions if there's something wrong with my setup.
Cheers from the sunny South of France,
Niki
