Dear Gurus

How I can find the all configured NTP clients from NTP server.

Shalom,

NTP is an open system. Any system that wants to connect can connect.

There will be records of which clients connected in /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log

The ntpq command may be useful in figuring out which systems have connected.

A careful look at netastat -an data may provide clues as well.

Hi,

you could check contents of /etc/ntp.conf on server and line for "peer" will be clients or you can issue command

ntpq -p

and you could see clients in the first column "remote" (except LOCAL which of obviously is the local system). Instead in the second column "refid" you should see the NTP server.

HTH.

Best regards,
Fabio
