Subject:  NTP server


I have a Centos 5 64-bit server that has ntp service enabled.  Windows XP 
with SP2 cannot properly sync to it for time, but can communicate with it 
via samba, ssh, and anything else.    I also disabled the Windows 
Firewall.  The C5 system does not have any firewall enabled.

Other C5 workstations can successfully sync to it via ntpdate.

What else could cause the XP machine to not be able to time sync with the 
C5 server?
~~~~~~

Try this; create a DNS entry called ntp.yourinternaldomain.com, then plug
that name into XP's internet time. I had a similar problem and changing the
IP address to FQDN fixed it.

Perhaps it will work for you. 

Good luck,

~James
