NTP server can not be reached
hello Guys,

I have an NTP problem on my SUN N240 server. External NTP server is being used for this box and when i run 'ntpq -p' i get connection refused message;

Code:
Code:
  ntpq -p ntpq: read: Connection refused
 Here this is the ntp.conf file:

Code:
Code:
  cat /etc/ntp.conf # BEGIN NTP SERVERS server 172.30.0.8 server 172.30.0.1 # END NTP SERVERS  # BEGIN NTP PEERS # END NTP PEERS  # BEGIN NTP OPTIONS restrict default nopeer nomodify notrap noquery restrict 127.0.0.1 driftfile /var/opt/NTP/ntp.drift statsdir /var/opt/NTP/ntpstats filegen peerstats file peerstatistics_log type week enable # END NTP OPTIONS
 When i run 'ntpdate -d 172.30.0.8'

Code:
Code:
  tpdate -d 172.30.0.8 12 Jan 18:32:03 ntpdate[19940]: ntpdate 3-5.93e+sun 03/06/05 23:16:45 (1.4) |transmit(172.30.0.8) receive(172.30.0.8) transmit(172.30.0.8) receive(172.30.0.8) transmit(172.30.0.8) receive(172.30.0.8) transmit(172.30.0.8) receive(172.30.0.8) transmit(172.30.0.8) server 172.30.0.8, port 123 stratum 2, precision -18, leap 00, trust 000 refid [192.168.97.18], delay 0.02724, dispersion 0.00003 transmitted 4, in filter 4 reference time:    d2b9a4af.d125395e  Thu, Jan 12 2012 18:27:59.816 originate timestamp: d2b9a5ad.374706ba  Thu, Jan 12 2012 18:32:13.215 transmit timestamp:  d2b9a5a4.1615f000  Thu, Jan 12 2012 18:32:04.086 filter delay:  0.02765  0.02728  0.02728  0.02724                     0.00000  0.00000  0.00000  0.00000  filter offset: 9.128965 9.128829 9.128809 9.128837                    0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 delay 0.02724, dispersion 0.00003 offset 9.128837  12 Jan 18:32:04 ntpdate[19940]: step time server 172.30.0.8 offset 9.128837 sec

And i see too files for ntp.conf in /etc/inet , these are ntp.conf and ntp4.conf

Do you have any idea on the cause of the problem why ntpq is not running?
