Solaris

I have several servers with different time settings.

How do I sync these servers to the same time with NTP.

Thanks,
Remi

use the search function

https://www.unix.com/solaris/34478-enabling-ntp.html

Run a timed server on only one server while other servers are running timed client.

This is what I ran on my ntp server & I'm still getting error message " ntpq: read: Connection refused"

Any Idea what I did wrong.

I'm trying to have all other servers indicated as the "peer" synchronize with the sstrappeadmn.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Remi


Either a peer or server. Replace "XType" with a value from the
# table above.
server sstrappeadmn prefer
peer sstarppeidb1
peer sstrappeidb2
peer sstrappeappl1
peer sstrappeappl2
peer sstrappeappl3
peer sstrappeappl4
peer sstrappeadb1
peer sstrappeadb2
peer sstrappeintf
peer sstrappemcs
broadcast 224.0.1.1 ttl 4

I feel the NTP Serivce is not running in the System.

If it is a Linux machine --> service ntpd start

In Solaris (till version 9) --> /etc/init.d/xntpd start
In Solaris 10 --> svcadm enable ntp
