From: root on 2 Nov 2009 10:46 After everyone's help, the damned thing still isn't working. I thought I was there when I got what looked like correct entries in the logfile, but one line was missing: 2 Nov 08:22:24 ntpd[3007]: synchronized to 65.255.217.202, stratum 3 I didn't get synchronized to any server, even though ntpq -p showed I was in contact with three servers. After over two hours of operation I had drifted by 84 seconds, which is just the drift I had always been getting.

I'm far from an expert, but since nothing has worked to this point, try removing or commenting out these two lines server 127.127.1.0 # local clock fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10

From: Henrik Carlqvist on 2 Nov 2009 17:23 Could you please post your entire ntp.conf again? Did you remove or comment out the multicast and broadcast lines? Those lines should probably be removed or commented out. You could try the following file: -8<--------------------- server 127.127.1.0 # local clock fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10 driftfile /etc/ntp/drift pidfile /var/run/ntpd.pid server 0.pool.ntp.org server 1.pool.ntp.org server 2.pool.ntp.org server 3.pool.ntp.org server tick.ucla.edu -8<--------------------- regards Henrik -- The address in the header is only to prevent spam.

Use OpenNTP, not ISC ntpd. You'll be glad you switched. -- buck |
