Hi,

I had a problem of Mac OS 10.1 and 9.2.1 not refusing to sync with my
FreeBSD ntp server.  I found that the solution eventually fixed itself and
after a few days the computers reported that "Synchronisation was
successful"  I have no idea what the problem was, so I can't be of any help
there, but what I did was set the mac's to use the same time server that I
was using on the FreeBSD computer for a day or two, and then switched them
over to the local FreeBSD one.  Strange problem I know, but that's the only
way it worked for me.

Regards,

David Okeby

Hi
unfortunately I couldn't find a hint for the problems I have syncing my Mac
OS 9 or OS X with the ntpd from FreebSD. I am using FreeBSD 4.4 as a
firewall and wanted to support the network with a timeserver.
nettime on W2K works well. But it seems that also XP has problems with the
ntp and freebsd.
Any idea?
BTW: Here is my ntpd.conf (and I verified the ntpd is working)

server localhost prefer
broadcast 10.255.255.255
enable monitor stats            # enable the good stuff
driftfile /etc/ntp.drift        # path for drift file
statsdir /var/log/ntpstats/     # directory for statistics files
filegen peerstats file peerstats type day enable
filegen loopstats file loopstats type day enable
filegen clockstats file clockstats type day enable
restrict 10.0.0.0 mask 255.0.0.0 notrust nomodify notrap
