If you set up only the local clock, it will always believe it is sync'ed, even though it is freewheeling and may drift away from real time. Set up your primary timeserver against 4 or so stratum-2 or pool.ntp.org servers, via something like: server 0.pool.ntp.org server 1.pool.ntp.org server 2.pool.ntp.org server 3.pool.ntp.org ...or just "pool pool.ntp.org" if your ntpd version is new enough. Have the other client machines on the local subnet sync to that. Be patient. :-) Regards, -- -Chuck _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
