Can you force local NTP server to be accepted as "suitable"?
Is there some way to force the NTP server on a brand-new install to be "suitable" to sync other servers from? (I'm more concerned with synchronization between machines, and less concerned with what the actual time they sync to is)

For example, whenever I install fresh from the Fedora DVDs and try to time-sync between servers (ntpdate -u [IP_of_my_new_system]), I get an error like:
Quote:
no suitable servers found
These machines are not attached to the internet, and I don't want to wait every time (dunno how long is required, but I usually wait an hour or so) for the NTP server to accept itself as valid.
