Hi,
 
I have added new NTP server as Startum 1. I would like to sync my existing NTP server with new NTP server. 
 
But keeping the impact less, I would like to know what is the best method to slew the time correctly.
 
I have figured out the steps and would like to confirm the same.
 
-          First stop the existing NTP daemon.
-          Configure the NTP.conf file with new NTP server.
-          Sync the existing server with NTPDate – b <NEW Server Name>
-          Start the NTPd and check the status with ntpq –p
 
Please let me know if this the correct method or else I would like to know another method for slewing the time.
 
Regards,
Vijay
