Hi.
I'm having trouble getting ntp set up on my network. If I run
ntpdate -d 0.north-america.pool.ntp.org
I get lots of very proper looking output like this:
server 216.52.237.153, port 123
stratum 2, precision -16, leap 00, trust 000
refid [216.52.237.153], delay 0.05374, dispersion 0.00017
transmitted 4, in filter 4
reference time: c987ef72.c8fb381a Thu, Feb 22 2007 2:31:14.785
originate timestamp: c987f29a.e403144f Thu, Feb 22 2007 2:44:42.890
transmit timestamp: c987f384.8d159c49 Thu, Feb 22 2007 2:48:36.551
filter delay: 0.05443 0.05374 0.05426 0.05534
0.00000 0.00000 0.00000 0.00000
filter offset: -233.675 -233.675 -233.675 -233.676
0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000
delay 0.05374, dispersion 0.00017
offset -233.675759
Unfortunately, if I run the same as above without -d (trying to actually set
my system time):
ntpdate 0.north-america.pool.ntp.org
I get an error:
22 Feb 02:50:46 ntpdate[7808]: no server suitable for synchronization
found
I'd really like to get ntp working on my machines but I'm at a total loss to
explain this! Can anyone help?
Thanks!
