Katsu, Ndpd does both, but it is not configured to act as a time server by default. Under the CLIENT NETWORK section of the default /etc/ntp.conf file add a restrict directive that defines your local network (mine is 172.17.0.0/16) as follows: # -- CLIENT NETWORK ------- # Permit systems on this network to synchronize with this # time service. Do not permit those systems to modify the # configuration of this service. Also, do not use those # systems as peers for synchronization. # restrict 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0 nomodify notrap restrict 172.17.0.0 mask 255.255.0.0 nomodify notrap Jim PS: If that doesn't work, drop me a note, I'll send my whole file. -----Original Message----- From: katsumi liquer [mailto:katsumi@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, January 29, 2007 4:12 PM To: redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: NTP time server? Hello everyone, I have a question -- before I ask, let me just state that I have been trying hard to find an answer but as of yet have not found one ;) Does anyone here run an NTP time server on RHEL? What is the preferred implementation? Is their one which is somehow a part of a standard package I can't find? Obviously I found ntpd, but it seems like that is only used for setting the time on the local server, not for providing a service. I am playing with compiling OpenNTPD, but before I go to crazy with that I just wanted to make sure I am not missing a better built-in RHEL package.
