Greetings. I have a FreeBSD 6.1 x86_64 system and an HP 58503A GPS
receiver I'd like to use as a time source. The HP receiver displays time
via tip or minicom, but when loading ntpd, FreeBSD returns this error:
refclock_newpeer: clock type 26 invalid
This is with the stock install of FreeBSD; I didn't install ntp from
ports, and I have not recompiled the kernel. (If I do need to recompile
the kernel, please let me know what option(s) to use.)
Here is the relevant part of /etc/ntp.conf:
server 127.127.26.0 prefer
server us.pool.ntp.org
server us.pool.ntp.org
server us.pool.ntp.org
server us.pool.ntp.org
ntpq sees only the four pool servers (duh).
Also, I symlinked the serial port to /dev/hpgps0:
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 10 Sep 6 00:25 /dev/hpgps0 -> /dev/cuad1
I'm new to ntp. What's missing here?
thanks
dn
