Hi All, Thanks for your responses. I did following; 1. Changed the stratum from 10 to 1 on Master server. 2. I have changed the ntp.conf file on the client machine. server 192.168.6.9 restrict default ignore restrict 127.0.0.1 restrict 192.168.6.9 mask 255.255.255.255 nomodify notrap noquery driftfile /var/lib/ntp/drift Removed all the above except "server 192.168.6.9 ".. Now when I start the ntpd , It successfully synchronizes with Master server.
