Thanks! ntpdate running after ntpd was what was causing the problem. Also a good reminder to grep out relevant parts in /etc/defaults/rc.conf... as my conf file was, by default /var/db/ntpd.drift'. No wonder my /etc/ntpd.conf didn't get touched. Thanks again Sean. - bpk On 5/12/05, Sean Murphy <smurphy@calarts.edu> wrote: > Ensure you due ntpdate before you run ntpd. > This can be done just once from the command line and ntpd cannot be running. > > ntpdate ntp2.sf-bay.org > > then add the following to /etc/rc.conf > ntpd_enable="YES" > ntpd_flags="-c /etc/ntp.conf -p /var/run/ntpd.pid" > > between the lines is a example of ntp.conf in /etc > ==== > #List of servers to pull time from > server ntp2.sf-bay.org > server clock.isc.org > server clock.via.net > server ntp.ucsd.edu > > #This is created automaticaly you do not have to touch it > #However it might take hours for it to be created > driftfile /var/db/ntp.drift > > #This Line restricts which hosts are allowed to pull from your box > restrict 172.30.0.0 mask 255.255.0.0 notrust nomodify notrap > > === > > restart your box > > check ntp using ntpdc > > $ ntpdc -s > remote local st poll reach delay offset disp > ======================================================================= > .bigben.ucsd.edu 198.182.157.33 2 1024 377 0.01555 0.038196 0.01865 > *clock.via.net 198.182.157.33 1 1024 377 0.02483 0.038705 0.01482 > .clock.isc.org 198.182.157.33 2 1024 377 0.02481 0.040574 0.01482 > zorac.sf-bay.or 198.182.157.33 2 1024 377 0.01485 0.044078 0.01865 > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" >help
