Hi all,
I am trying to set up a ntp server on an embedded linux platform. My
platform will be connected to a switch (not connected to internet) and all
clients will synchronize their clock with my platform local clock.
I have downloaded and install ntpd, set up a conf file (ntp.conf) on my
platform:
conf file:
server 127.127.1.0
fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 3 refid AmT3
logfile /var/log/ntp.log
restrict default notrap nopeer nomodify
restrict 192.168.0.0 mask 255.255.0.0
On my platform I launch ntpd -c ntp.conf.
On a linux PC connected to the switch, I launch: ntpdate -b -v server_ip_@
Most of the time, I get this error message: "ntpdate : no server suitable
for synchronization found", but sometimes the synchronization is OK.
What can I do to always have a synchronization?
Is my conf file OK?
Thanks in advance.
Yoann.
