Date problem !!!

Hello,

I changed the date/time on 2 D-Class servers but after few minutes it reverts back to the old time, date remains fine.

Any suggestions, where could be the problem and how to make it permanent.

Thanks

Re: Date problem !!!

Do you have NTP configured?
run this:
# ntpq -p

Hi

Are these servers set up for NTP?

Re: Date problem !!!

Hello,

I don't have NTP setup. Except these 2 D-Class servers I am able to set the date/time without any problems on other D/L/N-Class servers.

Thanks

Re: Date problem !!!

Hi

Can you disconnect these servers from the network and then do a date/time change and see if it holds.

Re: Date problem !!!

Hello,

Disconnecting the servers is not possible. Any other solution.

Thanks

Hi Venky,

I would say that you are synchronizing with NTP from within crontabs file.

Try to look if there is any entry in or entry included in any programmed batch in it.
