Yes, I discovered the UDPness of it last night and went through the rules again. I am pretty sure they are correct (or at least I cannot see anything wrong). I would assume that ntpdate also uses UDP - and using that I can see all these servers ? > Another question: Do you have a dynamically assigned IP > address?

No, everything is static. It has to be some error in my PF config file somewhere I guess, just hard to work out where. > I'm running ntpd on a NAT gateway myself (RELENG_6), and > there are no problems at all. yes, I too am doing this on a machine elsewhere, which is why this is so frustrating! I know it works, I even have it working on a different network, and it particlaly works here too (it can see one NTP machine on the far side NAT, just none further away). I will continue looking Thanks, -pcf. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
