Hi
My NTP Server : 192.168.48.105
NTP Client : 192.168.48.120

At server ntpd is running.

ntp client is synchronizing with ntp server only at time i start(/etc/init.d/ntpd start)
ntpd at client.

[root@laxman etc]# /etc/init.d/ntpd start
ntpd: Synchronizing with time server: [ OK ]
Starting ntpd: [ OK ]


Ntp Client is not sync with ntp server, even when i change time at ntp server. only when i restart ntpd next time at client time , client is getting sync with server time.

i want to know how to sync clients time automatically with server. what do modify in ntp.conf file.

ntp.conf

server 192.168.48.105
fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10
driftfile /var/lib/ntp/drift
broadcastdelay 0.008
authenticate yes
keys /etc/ntp/keys

thanks in advance

man cron

man at

or add a symlink in /etc/init.d/rc4.d

whether ntdp wont sync continously. Is it do only during startup of ntpd serverice?

Mine does it gradually and keeps resyncing at random times. I watch it on Gkrellm. There seems to be no pattern to when it resyncs.

If it is running, it should be working.
