Can you show us a copy of your server /etc/ntp.conf and a client's /etc/ntp.conf. Your server should map to 127.0.0.1 and your clients to 192.168.10.20
Have you opened your firewall to allow UDP packets on port 123?

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,
I would like to set up NTP locally in my servers and client locally. I have no internet connection, what I want to do is all my servers synchronized to one server. lets say I have 5 servers, so 1 of this will be act as a master while the rest is client. I only want those clients to get the... (1 Reply)

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?

ntp.drift
ntp.drift(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual ntp.drift(4)
NAME
ntp.drift - Network Time Protocol (NTP) drift file
DESCRIPTION
When the NTP daemon (xntpd) is first started, it computes the error in the intrinsic frequency of the clock on the computer it is running
on. This process usually takes about a day or two after the daemon is started to compute a good estimate of this (and it needs a good
estimate to synchronize closely to its server). Once the initial value is computed, it will change only by relatively small amounts during
the course of continued operation.
The driftfile declaration should always be included in the ntp.conf file. This provides xntpd with complete path name to a file in which
it can store the current value of the frequency error. That way, if the daemon is stopped and restarted, it can reinitialize itself to the
previous estimate without spending time recomputing the frequency estimate.
The ntp.drift file contains one line with the following format: freq_offset flag Specifies the nominal frequency offset. DO NOT modify
this field. Specifies the method used to improve system clock accuracy. Specifies that xntpd runs a Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) algorithm to
keep synchronized with other hosts. This is the default. Specifies the use of the PLL algorithm in the kernel. This requires the
NTP_TIME kernel option. After the option is configured in the kernel, edit the ntp.drift file and change the flag value to 1.
See System Administration for information on the NTP_TIME kernel option.
