I got a question regarding NTP (Network time protocal) in AIX.
AIX is new in our environment. so' we do not have any time server that is useful for new LPARs.
so' i tried using IBM steps to configure NTP server on one of our test/lab LPARs.
I used the below link to make it work. But it did not working.
ON one of AIX LPAR --> to make it as NTP server
another LPAR (Client)
error: " If you get the message, "no server suitable for synchronization found", verify xntpd is running on the server (see above) and that no firewalls are blocking port 123"
i did verified.........
1) xntp is running on LPAR1 (NTP server)
2) date and time also almost same on both LPARs (just a sec/ 2 sec difference)
3) I do not know, how to check whether any firewall is blocking PORT 123
please give me any command to verify that.
client
server
Can you please help me resolve/setup NTP. I do not have any existing timeservers here. please let me know if i need to provide any details.
Thanks,

I would suggest that you have the wrong server IP address coded. Could you use a DNS name instead anyway? I have this coded:-
The DNS names resolve to the public IP addresses (not internet public, just public within our organisation) rather than the 127...... address you have. I'm not sure that this would route to the other servers. It is odd that you are trying an address 127.127.1.0. Why do you have that? I think the 127....... addresses are considered special and reserved, and probably not routed.

All here, thank you for listening. Now I've set up a Linux NTP server by adding a external windows NTP server in /etc/ntp.conf. Then I start the ntpd daemon. But how often does the Linux NTP server update its time with the external NTP server? I've looked up everywhere but found no information... (1 Reply)

All,
How do you set a Solaris 9 server which received ntp updates from a ntp server to broadcast them on a local subnet. I have created a /etc/inet/ntp.conf file to receive the updates from a server on network and need to make this server become like a ntp relay from the main server.
Any... (1 Reply)
