You don't say why you needs this. I'm assuming there is a firewall and you do not have the ability to re-configure it. Do you have VPN access through the firewall. The other thing is to make an SSH "tunnel" and forward port 123 data via SSH. I think with effort you can get NTP to use a different port What about setting up the server for broadcast? Then your client can be a broadcast client As a last resort you can buy a GPS receiver for $80, use that for a reference and ignore the server. ===== Chris Albertson Redondo Beach, California _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
