xntpd

UCI — Fri, 07 Jul 2000 12:59:36 GMT

Hi,

On a HP/UX 11.00 machine, I want to start xntpd. When I do ntpq -p I get the following output:
ntpq: read: Can't assign requested address

When I do a ping to the destination, I got a reply.
(ntpq version 3.5f: Fri Dec 10 18:29:01 GMT 1999 PHNE_19711eply.)

Anyone??

If you do the command "ps -ef | grep ntp", odds are that there will not be a /usr/sbin/xntpd process running. Modification of the /etc/ntp.conf file is required. Once completed, the service can be started with /usr/sbin/xntpd or with
/sbin/init.d/xntpd start.

Also, SAM can be of assistance is getting you running.

Hi,

look first in /etc/rc.config.d/netdaemons
if you have there set XNTPD=1
If not set this and start xntp with:
/sbin/init.d/xntpd start
Have you configured the /etc/ntp.conf ?
Ie: server version 3

Regards

Andrew

Thanks Andrew.
It was the setting in /etc/rc.config.d/netdaemons.
The XNTPD was 0. When I set this value to 1 the xntpd starts.
