Greetings, I have a FBSD 4.5p23 box which I have configured to act as a ntp server for a 10.x.y.z subnet the conf files are : /etc/ntp.conf -------------------------------- server 198.w.x.1 driftfile /var/run/driftfile -------------------------------- /etc/rc.conf -------------------------------------------------------- ntpdate_flags="198.w.x.1" ntpdate_enable="YES" xntpd_enable="YES" xntpd_program="ntpd" xntpd_flags="-c /etc/ntp.conf -p /var/run/ntpd.pid" -------------------------------------------------------- configs : hq-gw = 198.w.x.1 (fbsd box clients can connect) hq-ntp = 196.z.y.2 fw-hq-pvt = 198.w.x.189 + 10.131.156.2 pvt-ntp = 10.131.156.5 (fbsd box clients can not connect) clients can connect to hq-gw clients can not connetc to pvt-ntp The HQ chaps will not route 10.x.x.x adresses since they use those adresses between routers. The pvt-ntp gets its clock from hq-gw. hq-gw gets its clock from a server ht-ntp hq-ntp gets its clock from lennier.cc.vt.edu. I have check the firewall rules on fw-hq-pvt and the rules are : allow pass udp from any to hq-gw 123 allow pass udp from hq-gw 123 to any. on pvt-ntp: if i execute ntpdate hq-gw i get : ntpdate[pid]: adjust time server hq-gw offset .... if i execute ntptrace hq-gw i get : 198.w.x.1: stratum 15, offset -1.362497, synch distance 0.05914 196.z.y.2: *Timeout* If i move pvt-ntp to the 198.w.x network, then clients can connect to it. if i move it to the 10.131.156 network then clients get "no server suitable for synchronization found" Please advise.
