NTP sync time issue...
Dear All,
I configured NTP client by simply changing /etc/ntp.conf file and add my NTP server in it. I is synchronizing at every second which generates too much extra traffic what i want is it must sync after an hour periodically. Need help... |
ntp only synchronizes at most every 16 seconds, so it can't be doing it every second, and a sane and stable instance will only sync every 1024 seconds by default but possibly only every 36.4 hours. show us your ntp.conf and also the output of "ntpq -pn"

well there you are... syncing every 1024 seconds, to 172.26.5.2. looks fine other than only haveing one accessible server there.

* = synced to this server
172.26.5.2 = the server you're synced to 212.81.107.5 = the server that server is synced to 5 = the strata of the server your synced to u = not sure actually 720 = how long until your next poll 1024 = how often you poll 377 = the "reachability" mask of the server - see manpage 1.038 = the time it's taking to get a response from the server 13.506 = how far off their time you are 0.314 = how confident you are in the time their giving you (roughly) |
All times are GMT -5. The time now is 07:05 AM. |
