Hi,
Can someone let me know the detail procedure for configuring NTP in Solaris/Windows/Linux environment....???
I would like to use any NTP Server on Windows Server & rest of the systems running with Solaris 10/9 & Linux be as NTP Client. All NTP Client should take the time from NTP Server... (8 Replies)
We have had some email outages in the last few months and my boss is asking is it worth going with one of those email redundancy/filtering sites. The thing is, we have a backup server on a remote location, so I am pretty sure we can set something up with what we have already.
At the moment... (1 Reply)
Hi, I am trying to configure NTP client on my Solaris server, but I am getting error like:

I try a static ip assign mode while i installed the Solaris 10(U 8). But i can't access the internet, i try the ifconfig -a command and see my configuration is correct in the interface. So i want to get my ip using dhcp. I search from internet. They give me the suggestions.

We had a network problem a couple of days before that caused 1 interface to down and up. But today I have noticed that our date is wrong, our system have 4 servers and the other 3 are OK.
I used <date> command, the result is: Fri Jan 2 17:57:55 ICT 1970
I have tried set date to be the same as... (3 Replies)
i want to configure machine1 as ntp server. this machine has oel 5.9 64 bit installed and this machine is not connected to internet neither there is any ntp server.
there is another machine2 and i want to configure that as ntp client.
plz do tell me that what lines do i add in /etc/ntp.conf... (0 Replies)
Hello,
I am new to ubuntu Server OS and so trying to setup and ntp service on couple of servers.
I see ntp rpm is not installed.

I am trying to decode "configure" script for "bluez" package as far as how are "configure" options for cross-compiling passed to libtoool or GCC to build C++ library.
As far as I can tell the "configure" triplet analysis (case) has no options to analyze anything with "linux" in it ,therefore... (5 Replies)

xntpd(8) System Manager's Manual xntpd(8)NAME
xntpd - Network Time Protocol (NTP) daemon
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/xntpd [-abdgmx] [-c conffile] [-e auth_delay] [-f driftfile] [-k keyfile] [-l logfile] [-p pidfile] [-r broaddelay] [-s statdir]
[-t trustedkey] [-v sysvar] [-V def_sysvar]
OPTIONS
Runs in authenticate mode. Listens for broadcast NTP and synchronizes to this if available. Specify debugging mode. This option may occur
multiple times, with each occurence indicating greater detail of display. Allows xntpd to correct any time difference, including differ-
ences greater than 1000 seconds. Listens for multicast messages and synchronizes to them if available (requires multicast kernel). Pre-
vents xntpd from setting the system time backward. In NTP version 3, the default allows xntpd to set the system time backward. Specifies
an alternate configuration file. Specifies the time (in seconds) it takes to compute the NTP encryption field on this computer. Specifies
the location of the drift file. Specifies the location of the file which contains the NTP authentication keys. See ntp.keys(4) for infor-
mation on the authentication key file format. Specifies a log file instead of logging to syslog. Specifies the name of the file to record
the daemon's process id. Specifies the default round trip delay (in seconds) to be used if the daemon cannot automatically compensate for
network delay when synchronizing to broadcasts. Specifies the directory in which to create statistics files. Adds a key number to the
trusted key list. Adds a system variable. Adds a system variable listed by default.
DESCRIPTION
The xntpd daemon maintains a system's time-of-day in agreement with Internet standard time servers. The xntpd daemon is a complete imple-
mentation of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) version 3 standard as defined by RFC 1305, but also retains compatibility with version 1 and
version 2 servers as defined by RFC 1059 and RFC 1119, respectively.
The xntpd daemon does all computations in fixed point arithmetic and requires no floating point code. The computations done in the proto-
col and clock adjustment code are carried out with high precision and with attention to the details that might introduce systematic bias
into the computations, to try to maintain an accuracy suitable for synchronizing with even the most precise external time source.
The xntpd daemon reads its configuration from a file at startup time. The default configuration file is /etc/ntp.conf. The xntpd daemon
can be monitored and configuration options altered while the daemon is running by using either the ntpq(8) or the xntpdc(8) program.
The xntpd daemon includes support for several commercially available external reference clocks. See ntp.conf(4) for information on the use
and configuration of reference clocks.
The Tru64 UNIX operating system also provides the NTP_TIME and MICRO_TIME kernel options to allow greater accuracy and time resolution. See
ntp_intro(7) and Network Administration for more information.
