Hi! Sometime this afternoon, ntpdate stopped working.
Some debugging shows that it doesn´t even send out any packet to the server. strace´ output doesn´t help me, either: bash-2.03$ sudo strace ntpdate -v 193.81.13.2 <...> write(1, "14 Jul 19:55:26 ntpdate[20704]: "..., 8414 Jul 19:55:26 ntpdate[20704]: ntpdate 4.0.99k23 Fri Apr 27 14:27:43 CEST 2001 (1) ) = 84 socket(PF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_IP) = 3 bind(3, {sin_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(123), sin_addr=inet_addr("0.0.0.0")}}, 16) = 0 fcntl(3, F_SETFL, O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = 0 getpid() = 20704 getrlimit(RLIMIT_STACK, {rlim_cur=8192*1024, rlim_max=8192*1024}) = 0 setrlimit(RLIMIT_STACK, {rlim_cur=2044*1024, rlim_max=8192*1024}) = 0 brk(0x8056000) = 0x8056000 pipe([4, 5]) = 0 fn=0xf00, child_stack=0x8055898, flags=CLONE_SIGHAND, args=0x4014a520clone() = 20705 write(5, "[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]"..., 148) = 148 sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, NULL, [USR1]) = 0 write(5, " [EMAIL PROTECTED]([EMAIL PROTECTED]@ [EMAIL PROTECTED]"..., 148) = 148 sigaction(SIGALRM, {0x4015d5c0, [], 0x4000000}, {SIG_DFL}, 0x4008f3b8) = 0 gettimeofday({995133326, 168063}, NULL) = 0 setpriority(PRIO_PROCESS, 0, -12) = 0 select(4, [3], [], [], {60, 0} <here it idles ~ 1 minute> = 0 (Timeout) time(NULL) = 995133386 getpid() = 20704 write(1, "14 Jul 19:56:26 ntpdate[20704]: "..., 8414 Jul 19:56:26 ntpdate[20704]: poll(): nfound = 0, error: Function not implemented ) = 84 select(4, [3], [], [], {60, 0} I haven´t done anything to the system for a week or so, and in fact, did nothing but catching up on my mail today.
