Apologies, I sent a reply to your personal email by mistake - Thunderbird has it as default.

Hi Harlan,

Version is 4.2.4p (yes, I know. It's the same version I've been talking about and I cannot upgrade it unfortunately).

When running ntpq -p I've got this

xxxxxxx-2:/etc# ntpq -p
remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter
==============================================================================
130.88.200.4 .INIT. 16 u - 64 0 0.000 0.000 0.000

 xxxxxxx-2:/etc# ntpdate 130.88.200.4
20 May 23:30:11 ntpdate[16690]: no server suitable for synchronization found

(hopefully it will be better aligned on your news reader!)

The same 130.88.200.4 works from other networks.

If I keep pinging different pools, I can find another NTP server which replies.

Question: if I use the pools and for some reason the current server is not reachable, when the server is changed will NTP update and start using the new server instead? Or will NTP needs to be restarted?

In other words: if my server boots up when a non-reachable server is linked, will it keep the same unreachable one till next reboot?

Thank you!

What version(s) of ntp?

What is the output of 'ntpq -p' on one of these machines when you are
seeing the problem?
