This is my server ntp.conf file:
server 128.118.25.3
server 128.105.201.11
server 142.3.100.2
#server 127.127.1.0 # local clock
#fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10
logfile /var/log/ntp.log # me added for sanity sake
file /etc/ntp/drift
multicastclient # listen on default 224.0.1.1
broadcastdelay 0.008
authenticate no
---------------------------------------
This is my client ntp.conf file:
server 192.168.0.1 #ip of ntp server for network
#server 127.127.1.0 # local clock
#fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10
logfile /var/log/ntp.log # me added for sanity sake
file /etc/ntp/drift
multicastclient # listen on default 224.0.1.1
broadcastdelay 0.008
authenticate no
------------------------------------
If I specify the servers here, why do i need a step-tickers file in
/etc/ntp with those same server names?
I've tried both ways, i.e modifying the ntp.conf and adding a
step-tickers, but the "clock" time stays the same and the internal cmos
clocks are not updated either. I do get this for output on "ntpq -p"
server:
remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset
jitter

I didn't add any cron job to update time by the hour or any other
increment as noone said you had to that? what am i missing here? or do
i have it and my clocks don't know what time it is?
thanks for all the help so far (better than most howto's)
