Hi Binu,

Check the url below (docID : UOTHKBAN00000796) about 'How can I setup NTP without using SAM?' :

http://www2.itrc.hp.com/service/cki/docDisplay.do?docLocale=en_US&docId=200000062686582

And this url also (docID : KBRC00015667) about 'How do I configure a local NTP server?' *this one with SAM* :

http://www2.itrc.hp.com/service/cki/docDisplay.do?docLocale=en_US&docId=200000081573208

Hope this information can help you.

Cheers,

Hi,

You need to do only two changes on both server and client to achive this.

On server edit /etc/ntp.conf and put a entry in the end
server 127.127.1.1


On Client make entry in /etc/rc.config.d/netdaemons like this ( Change existing entry only)

export NTPDATE_SERVER="xx.xx.xx.xx"
export XNTPD=1

(Where xx.xx.xx.xx is the IP of the ntp server.)

And in /etc/ntp.conf make this entry in the end

server xx.xx.xx.xx

After this start ntp daemon in both server and client by

#/sbin/init.d/xntpd stop

#/sbin/init.d/xntpd start

Schronization may take some time depending upon the time differences in the server and the clients. Once synched a message will sppear in syslog.log like this.

Nov 9 23:54:52 client_hostname xntpd[1292]: synchronized to xx.xx.xx.xx, stratum=4
