Auto synchronization NTP not worked


Hello every body,

This is my first post here and I hope found answer dear you.

I'm searching several time for a solution to my problem described below but in vain.

Indeed, I have an NTP server (17.17.78.172).
And two client NTP (One solaris x86 87.71.8.10 and the other Linux RedHat 104.26.226.10)

Here information about servers:

Solaris x86 (synchronized without porblem):

What is strange, is that the manual synchro goes successfully, but not manually.

Hello,

One more thing, even if the server (host2) can't be synchronized with server, it exchange NTP packets with NTP server:

[root@redhat ~]# tcpdump -i eth0 udp port 123 or tcp port 123
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 65535 bytes

15:11:49.337639 IP host2.ntp > 17.17.78.172.ntp: NTPv4, Client, length 48
15:11:49.343714 IP 17.17.78.172.ntp > host2.ntp: NTPv3, Server, length 48

Your request are being rejected form the server. Could be because of the network you are coming from.
Have you tried a different time server?
