Hi, 

I seam to be having a problem setting my servers clock using ntpdate. 
The Server is running is FreeBSD 4.4 RC #1

when is try and run the command 

	ntpdate ntp.cs.strath.ac.uk ntp2b.mcc.ac.uk

I get the response 

	20 Sep 13:10:04 ntpdate[441]: no server suitable for synchronization 
found

but if I turn on query mode

	ntpdate -q ntp.cs.strath.ac.uk ntp2b.mcc.ac.uk

I get 

	server 130.159.196.118, stratum 2, offset -43209.008562, delay 
0.13278
	server 130.88.200.98, stratum 2, offset -43209.014114, delay 0.09576
	20 Sep 01:11:06 ntpdate[445]: step time server 130.88.200.98 offset 
-43209.014114 sec

Which says to me that the servers are responding to my request of 
time update.

if I try with debug turned on 

	ntpdate -d ntp.cs.strath.ac.uk ntp2b.mcc.ac.uk

again I get 

	20 Sep 01:13:03 ntpdate[446]: ntpdate 4.0.99b Sun Sep  9 01:54:45

I use the same 2 time servers at work an a selection of Sun Solaris 
boxes with no problem.

Thanks for any light shed on this

David
