Addition: After I reboot the embedded ARM system time is in sync with the windows box and ntp.log shows this:

Sidenote: As per my understanding I could safely remove the LCL entries and the server line where it lists own IPv4 address of the ARM box. I know that under normal circumstances I should provide at least three server addresses. But this is not the case here as I just want to sync the box to one device (currentlywindows box) non the local LAN, that itself is synced to the outside world via internet or GPS or DCF or the like. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
