Thanks for all  your help with this. I have just been told I need pass this
on to someone else now to have a look at but I manage to  make the change
too use version 4 not version 3 but unfortunately it did not make any
difference. I am going to  admit defeat on this at the moment. Simon thanks
for trying.

Regards

Andrew Bridgeman

Hi Andrew,

I am almost at the end with my latin ;-)
Anyway everything looks fine so far ... we get connection from and to
server1

The only strange thing I can see so far is the fact with "bad udp cksum
...." things. But this is also reported when I run tcpdump on my
servers.
The more strange/confusing fact is the thing about NTPv4 and NTPv3 as
your hosts seems to use NTPv3 (never heard that this can be a problem
... but you never know)

So from my point of view do you now have two options:
             Add server <ntp source server> version 4 to your /etc/ntp.conf
and try out what is happening
                         -> Maybe also check your ntp version

Or if possible add other server to you ntp configuration (available in
the internet, like 0.europe.pool.ntp.org)
             -> this requires to have the port on your firewall open for
ntp
(123)

It's than more like a try and error problem solving ...
             -> Ahh yes, you could also try adding a server as source
server
in the same subnet.

Cheers,
Simon
