Hello All, I have a strange issue at the moment with regards ntp working incorrectly on 35 of our Redhat WS Version 3 Linux machines. I have set them all up the same way so they use the IP of our Windows Cluster machine I did this by adding the IP to the ntpservers file and the tick-servers file. In addition edited the ntp.conf file to show the cluster IP as well. What I seem to get is time differences on the machines within a day of stopping and starting the ntpd service. For example I did this yesterday and below shows all the machine times now ( 24 hours ) later, you will notice there are 30 sec to a minute differences already and I bet with in a week or a month they get even more out of sync. Has any body got any ideas on what i can check or change to get this working correctly as currently it is causing real issues when we run analysis jobs over night.
