Ntpd

Hello,

I'm looking for assitance on setting up network time protocol on my HP-ux boxes.

I have edit the .conf file accordingly. And /etc/services. But whenever I try and start the service nothing happens at all. No error message, nothing.

I have a SCO box as a time server and I wish for my HP machines to talk to that.

I'm wondering if anyone can help with this. I can post any files that may be of use. What steps do i need to take to set this up? I've added this line to my /etc/ntpd.conf file:

server ganelive minpoll 180 prefer

Ganelive is the name of the time server (doesnt work with the IP address either).

pmfind

PMFIND(1)						      General Commands Manual							 PMFIND(1)

NAME

       pmfind - find PCP services on the network

SYNOPSIS

       pmfind [-q] [-m mechanism] [-s service]

DESCRIPTION

       pmfind  searches  for instances of the specified PCP service being advertised on the network and prints a list of URLs corresponding to the
       services discovered.

       By default pmfind will search for servers advertising the pmcd(1) service, however an alternate PCP service to discover	can  be  specified
       using the -s option.

       The  -m	option	sets  the mechanism that pmfind uses when performing service discovery.  By default, or if the keyword "all" is specified,
       every available mechanism will be used (iteratively).  Currently, "avahi" is the only supported discovery mechanism.

       The -q option suppresses all output on the standard output stream.

PCP ENVIRONMENT

       Environment variables with the prefix PCP_ are used to parameterize the file and directory names used by PCP.  On  each	installation,  the
       file  /etc/pcp.conf contains the local values for these variables.  The $PCP_CONF variable may be used to specify an alternative configura-
       tion file, as described in pcp.conf(5).

DIAGNOSTICS

       The value of the exit status from the command is zero when services were successfully located, one if no services were found, and two if an
       error occurred.

       In the event of an error, a message will be generated on standard error that is intended to be self-explanatory.
