Hi,
We have a new HP-UX 11.31 machine, trying to setup NTP on hte server,
# uname -a
HP-UX mhrd01 B.11.31 U ia64 0774228282 unlimited-user license
set the NTP server in "/etc/rc.config.d/netdaemons" file
export NTPDATE_SERVER=ntp_server_hostname
export XNTPD=1
export XNTPD_ARGS="-x"
the ntp.conf file was not available in the "/etc" I have copied it from one existing HP-UX server,
Also the xntpd script was also not available in "/sbin/init.d/" copied this script from the existing HP-UX server.
Cannot start xntp deamon
# /sbin/init.d/xntpd start
# ps -ef |grep xnt
root 3396 3315 0 09:41:30 pts/0 0:00 grep xnt
The server from where the "xntpd" and "/etc/ntp.conf" file was copied is
# uname -a
HP-UX hdb03 B.11.31 U ia64 0358197384 unlimited-user license
Any help will be highly appreciated!
P.S. This thread has been moved from HP-UX > System Administration to HP-UX > networking.

Re: xntpd not found
>> the ntp.conf file was not available in the "/etc"
You can find all the original files in /usr/newconfig
>> # /sbin/init.d/xntpd start
What happened then? Did you see any message from the script? What did you see in syslog.log?
It is very unusual for HP-UX to have ntp files removed. What does this command report:
swlist -l file NTP.NTP-RUN
If you get an error that the software was not found, some root user has removed the NTP fileset. I would be very concerned about what else has been removed.

Re: xntpd not found
Hi,
root:/homeroot# /sbin/init.d/xntpd start
root:/homeroot#
root:/homeroot# ps -ef | grep ntp root 22179 21520 0 10:23:31 pts/1 0:00 grep ntp
root:/homeroot#
root:/homeroot# swlist -l file NTP.NTP-RUN
# Initializing... # Contacting target "mcdh01"...
ERROR: Software "NTP.NTP-RUN" was not found on host
"mdchr01.kfmc.med:/".
I think NTP is not installed on the server, can you please let me know which version of NTP can be installed.

Re: xntpd not found
Get your installation DVDs and install NTP:
swinstall -s /dev/dvd-device NTP
