I am trying to synchronize the time of a PC using NTP using a server on LAN. Both the PCs do not have internet. I have made changes to the /etc/ntp.conf file of both the server and client . But still on rebooting is shows Synchronizing with time server failed. I am attaching the ntp.conf file of both server and client.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have 16 linux servers that use /etc/hosts files to see and talk with each other. I'm adding servers to this pool of servers. It is required to do host resolution via the /etc/hosts files. DNS or NIS are not alternatives. Aside from manually editing each of the 16+ /etc/hosts files every time I add a server or editing one /etc/hosts file on one server then scp'ing it to all the other servers, is there anyway to edit the /etc/hosts on one server and "push" it onto the other servers that need the new /etc/hosts file?
Everywhere I've looked on the Net, there hasn't been any suggestion except for the options I mention here.
Or am I just whistling in the wind?
I am not sure why sometime ssh failed to connect from my old Suse at home (Linux POMDESKTOP 2.6.18.2-34-default #1 SMP Mon Nov 27 11:46:27 UTC 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux) to my Fedora core 14 at work. I used the command
"ssh -X -l login_name IP_of_fedora"
Sometime it connected very fast but most of the time error with 'connection time out'. Also ping remote desktop often failed. How I can get reliable connection every time. Both desktops has been rebooted several times and both have internet access.
Am I the only person who can't get ubuntu one working properly?1) if I right-click a folder and ask to synchronize it to ubuntu one, there is absolutely no feedback at all (nothing seems to be synchronized, no icons are added to the folder, no progress bar, nothing).2) if I open the Ubuntu one preferences, it states "synchronizing in progress", and it keeps doing that. again; no progress, no icons, no nothing.Disconnecting reconnecting doesn't seem to matter.Rebooting (I know, I was desperate..) doesn't seem to matter.How do you guys manage to use this. I mean, the interface of ubuntu one is pretty clean, so there is not much to configure, which is good, if it would work out of the box .

The files will not have any difference initially.On machine A if a.php is changed and then when a sync is done from machine B to A, will a.php have the change or will it be overwritten? What about directories?

View 6 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to syncronize certain settings in ubuntu between several computers, such that when I change them on one they change on all?If not, is it possible to at least use the settings of one computer as the initial settings of another?These are the settings I am interested in:

- Compiz settings

I'm writing an application that uses PortAudio to generate sound. I need to synchronize certain GUI changes with the sound stream. The callback function receives a struct PaStreamCallbackTimeInfo that seems to have the timing information I need, but there's no documentation on what the various fields mean. Through experimentation, I've found that the currentTime field is the time that the callback was called (in retrospect, that seems pretty obvious), but what do the inputBufferAdcTime and outputBufferDacTime fields mean?
(Actually, PortAudio calls the callback fast enough that I could just use the currentTime to get the synchronization close enough, but still... it's the principle of the thing.)

I have several file servers in our offices and I am relatively new to Ubuntu / Linux. I get notices that there are updates for the server software from time to time. Is it typical to update everything when available or should I follow "If it ain't broke, don't fix it..." mentality?I would hate for everything to be working fine and then have an update throw me a curve.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI am hosting two Virtual Servers both running Centos 5.3 on a host machine also running the same OS. The VM software in use is Xen, as supplied with the OS.The host machine's time and date is fine, however both Virtual Servers are running ahead of real time consitantly.Running /etc/init.d/ntpd restart will resolve the issue however one of these is running MailScanner and when the time suddenly goes backwards, sometimes by as much as an hour, it stops working properly.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a set of machines on a disconnected network. Periodically, one of the machines connects to the internet and synchronizes its time with a time server that is not known until the connection is established. (The machine queries a central command server for the address of the time server it should synchronize to.)
I then use a custom tool to do some calculations to call adjtimex() and adjust the clock so that it runs fairly accurately.
I know ntpd is supposed to be able to handle disconnected networks but I thought you had to preconfigure the servers in the configuration file.
My intent is to run ntpd on this machine (without configured "server"s) so that it can serve time to the internal network. (Periodic synchronization using ntpdate from the internal machine to the bridge machine.)
The problem: ntpd wants to fuss with the values I set using adjtimex(). I want it to quit thinking it needs to adjust the clock and just serve time to the internal network. (Maybe I have a GPS time source hooked directly to the machine!)
This seems to have just started. I read a .pdf document with evince and I get a whole bunch of messages like the following.GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See URL... for information. (Details - 1: Server ping error:IDL:omg org/ CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0)What does this mean? why is evince trying to contact a server when I just want to read a document?

I am trying to access a DVD mounted on a machine running Fedora12 (192.168.0.105). I thought this should be possible with NFS, but the above error message is what I keep getting, no matter what I try.
Here is my mount command:
Code:
mount 192.168.0.105:/mnt/dvd -t nfs /tmp/scaleo
The Fedora 12 machine has the NFS server running, and the corresponding entry in /etc/exports is
Code:
/mnt/dvd *(ro)
I thought this might be a firewall problem, but it persists even if I turn firewalls off on both machines (client as well as server.) Also, doing
Code:
ssh 192.168.0.105
is OK, so what is wrong with the route?

I messed up the first installation of Fedora on my server. My setup is as follows: Fedora and Gnome - NFS system, No dual boot (Windows or anything) Fedora ISO DVD downloaded No kickstart or other tools. how to set this up, from the time I insert the disk and have it boot up (configged already to boot from it). I know how to wipe it clean at intall time. Is that the root directory? And, is /boot the actual boot directory? I'm just having a hard time uderstanding that. As I said, I just want a quick itemized list, step 1, step 2, etc, from partitioning, creating file system, mounting, etc. in the right order.
