=20 Hi All =20 Does anyone have implemented AIX ““Network Time Protocol”” NTP for = Server/Client time synchronization? =20 Regards Muhammad Jawaid Naz=20 Manager Systems Administration =20 Central Depository Company of Pakistan Ltd. 8th Floor, Karachi Stock Exchange Building Stock Exchange Road, Karachi 74000 =20
Thanks Eravimangalath,
It’s working now, Is there a way to change the value of ‘sanity limit’
Just curious .
Again, Thanks for all your help.
Regards,

Hi Eravimangalath,
I did try the following command :
stopsrc -s xntpd
ntpdate
Thanks for the information, I did ‘ntpq -p’ continuously and saw that
the ‘when’ count reaches the ‘poll’ value and it reset back.
BUT the time did not synchronizing.
Something wrong here …
Notes: The original date was set ‘Fri Jun 27 10:39:12 EDT 2003’
after the ‘when’ count reaches the ‘poll’
The real date suppose to be ‘Fri Jun 27 16:12:12 EDT 2003’
It’s never updated .
Regards,
Victory
Sorry, it was my mistake
When xntpd daemon is running, ‘ntpq -p’ came back
ntpq -p
remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset
disp
==
128.250.36.2 .GPS. 1 u 21 64 3 335.42 -5.602

Hello,
When I do:
‘ntpdate 128.250.36.2’ then it came back
27 Jun 14:41:01 ntpdate[5482]: step time server 128.250.36.2 offset
86940.680598sec
BUT when I do ‘ntpq -p’ it came back
ntpq: read: A remote host refused an attempted connect operation.

I did set up on my client machine per John Dunn suggestion , The xntpd =
daemon never get update
my time BUT the ntpdate work fine, Anyone know why ???
and how often the system get synchronization with ntp server ???
The following is what I configured on my AIX client box:
ntp.conf look like :=20
broadcastclient no
server 128.250.36.2
driftfile /etc/ntp.drift
tracefile /etc/ntp.trace
startsrc -s xntpd

Ok, here is how I got it to work.
ntp.conf on the server(F40) providing the time
broadcastclient no
peer 127.127.1.0 #LOCAL CLOCK
fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10
driftfile /etc/ntp.drift
tracefile /etc/ntp.trace
Then
startsrc -s xntpd
On client
ntp.conf look like :=20
broadcastclient no
server F40
driftfile /etc/ntp.drift
tracefile /etc/ntp.trace
startsrc -s xntpd
Add entries to inittab to start xntpd on boot up.

I have tried the same as mentioned, but didn’t succeeded, following =
message was occurred.
( 13 Nov 09:41:08 ntpdate [22762]: no server suitable for =
synchronization found )

Dear Friend,
How to find the CPU usage and Memory (Real & Paging) for AIX 4.3.3.?
Regards,
Rajesh
Is there a NTP Server running in this server (F40) ?? This server needs =
to be running the xntpd daemon.=20
You can try the F40 ip address instead of server name. Also, you can =
comment the lines driftfile and tracefile.
Regards.

I get the error=20
“ntpdate[28940]: no server suitable for synchronization found” when I =
run
ntpdate F40
F40 is another AIX box I want to get the time from
my /etc/ntc.conf file looks like :
server F40
driftfile /etc/ntp.drift
tracefile /etc/ntp.trace
What am I doing wrong?
Do I need to do anything on the F40 machine?
John
sorry, only touch /etc/ntp.drift :-&

NTP is a protocol, and is included with AIX, and usually with most open =
source OS’es. We just cron the ntpdate command as often as we think it =
is necessary. Hourly is good for us…
If you want to configure a client, just change the line “server” in the =
/etc/ntp.conf:
server “host_to_syncronize_with”=20
Then start the daemon: startsrc -s xntpd.
Before doing this, execute the following comnand: ntpdate =
“host_to_syncronize_with”

IS NTP opensource or part of AIX?
