In Debian 12 the default /etc/ntpsec/ntp.conf file contains the lines # Comment this out if you have a refclock and want it to be able to discipline # the clock by itself (e.g. if the system is not connected to the network). tos minclock 4 minsane 3 which means ntpd needs at least 3 servers to choose from. If you haven't changed that line and you have only one server configured like your output shows, you can never get synchronisation. urs
