MrC is so right! Just a few tweaks to get what you want. This monlist ALSO prints "peers", meaning Stratum 1 hosts. What I do is print the peers, and exclude those from the monlist. Observe:
Afterwards, you might want to do forward IP host resolution on the list. The reason I use the -n command is because the ntpdc output chops long hostnames off at a certain column, rendering the grep trick useless.
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.

Hi,
OS: Solaris9, SPARC
Is there any way I can track the commands run by users from the shell prompt?
Example:
Somebody is deleting files from the system. Who it is is a mystery. That person obviously does not use bash prompt so there is no history. Is there anyway I can find out who... (5 Replies)
dear all,
I'm facing problem that is i have noticed from few days back that some body is deleting and making changes in the file from developement server where i'm working(in unix)

Good morning to all,
can someone advise me how to setup aix ntp server with aix & wintel clients?
Secondly, I also require to enable the service to autostart on reboot, how do I configure this?
Thirdly, how do I configure daily autosync between clients and server?
Please advice, thanks.... (0 Replies)
Is there a way to track down what process is sending to a certain port? I have some thing pounding the network with requests to a multicast IP that doesn't exist. I have shut down all comms related processes and yet it is still there. Need a way to track the port or IP back to the process. Thanks... (3 Replies)
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)
I've tried to see what I can find on my own but I'm coming up with goose eggs. Basically I was wondering if there was a way of querying the scheduler (or something similar) to track a process back to a particular CPU it's executing on at the time of the command. ps has a "cpu" output option but...

hi guys
I have several Red Hat 5.7(7) all of them sync time with two NTP Servers based on Windows but the issue is I configure the NTP service, I start the ntp service and use ntpdate -u to set the time the first time
This is what I do
1. Configure /etc/ntp.conf

Hi,
I have two ntp servers in my cluster and I want all the nodes in my cluster to sync with either of the ntp servers or just one. Unfortunately it keep rotating the sync, between my ntp server 1, ntp server 2 and local. Is there anyway I can change the sync to avoid local?

ntptrace
ntptrace(1) General Commands Manual ntptrace(1)NAME
ntptrace - trace a chain of NTP servers back to the primary source
SYNOPSIS
ntptrace [ -vdn ] [ -r retries ] [ -t timeout ] [ server ]
DESCRIPTION
ntptrace determines where a given Network Time Protocol (NTP) server gets its time from, and follows the chain of NTP servers back to
their master time source. If given no arguments, it starts with localhost . Here is an example of the output from ntptrace :
% ntptrace localhost: stratum 4, offset 0.0019529, synch distance 0.144135 server2ozo.com: stratum 2, offset 0.0124263, synch distance
0.115784 usndh.edu: stratum 1, offset 0.0019298, synch distance 0.011993, refid On each line, the fields are (left to right): the host
name, the host stratum, the time offset between that host and the local host (as measured by ntptrace ; this is why it is not always zero
for " localhost "), the host synchronization distance, and (only for stratum-1 servers) the reference clock ID. All times are given in sec-
onds. Note that the stratum is the server hop count to the primary source, while the synchronization distance is the estimated error rela-
tive to the primary source. These terms are precisely defined in RFC-1305.
OPTIONS -d Turns on some debugging output.
-n Turns off the printing of host names; instead, host IP addresses are given. This may be useful if a nameserver is down.
-r retries Sets the number of retransmission attempts for each host (default = 5).
-t timeout Sets the retransmission timeout (in seconds) (default = 2).
-v Prints verbose information about the NTP servers.
BUGS
This program makes no attempt to improve accuracy by doing multiple samples.
