[Bug 781088] Re: Time is not syncronized with NTP-server

[gerti]

Hi Clint,

thanks for your answer.
Yes the 4 NTP-servers, you cite, IF you install the NTP-daemon.
But as it didn't work, I removed the NTP-daemon again.
I shouldn't need the NTP-daemon, as I don't want to run a NTP-service  
for other machines om my network.

As of this moment
grep pool /etc/ntp.conf
yields
# Use public servers from the pool.ntp.org project.
# Please consider joining the pool (http://www.pool.ntp.org/join.html).
server dk.pool.ntp.org iburst
server pool.ntp.org iburst

I assume because I have run the ntpdate with these NTP-servers  
(several times).

and running
ls -l /etc/rc?.d/*ntp*
yields
ls: cannot access /etc/rc?.d/*ntp*: No such file or directory

again, presumably, because I removed the (for me) useless NTP-daemon.

regards gerti
