check the /etc/ntp.conf file. It should be in the minpoll and maxpoll.
How does it work?

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 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.
