I am setting up a some access restrictions rules for our NTP server using the restrict option. I have in mind to set the following restriction rule for clients which are allowed to set their time with our server:
My question is about the "nopeer" option. My wish would be that the meaning is:
if a remote machine sends a peer query: do not form a peer (i.e. do not let the remote machine set your own time) BUT STILL answer to the time request (i.e. let the remote machine set it's time using your time)
Is it like this? or is it:
if a remote machine sends a peer query: do not let the remote machine set your own time AND DO NOT answer to the time request (i.e. DO NOT let the remote machine set it's time using your time)
??
The point is that some machine which should be allowed to get the time are windows machines which BY DEFAULT send peer queries (I know this can be changed but it would be a major effort to change this settings on all of them)
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?

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)
Hello I wonder if there is a way to get an alarm if the ntp client cant get to the ntp server? Or if it possible to monitor the client clock and if it differs more than xxx milliseconds raize an alarm?
Thanks in advance.

Hi everybody. I'm not sure where to post this, so I hope here is OK. I have 4 name servers and on one of the slaves, my log files are filling up with this error:
ntpd: sendto() (fd=20): Invalid argument
It is always the same IP, and only on this name server. A quick google revealed that the... (1 Reply)

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.
Any... (1 Reply)
