Server :: NTPD Giving Non Local Time - How To Set

View 2 RepliesI am trying to synchronize the time of my VM server with ntpd. I have the following configuration. And in the /etc/ntp.conf, I have the following line:
restrict default ignore
restrict 127.0.0.1.
server time1.server
server time2.server
Whenever I have this line, the erver is not able to synchronize its time... So far as I understood, this line prevents other servers using this machine as a time server. And the second line says to allow localhost to use as time server. But why do I need to use its own time server when I have specified to use time1.server and time2.server ? ( firewall for tcp and udp ports 123 is open)
However, when I replace the first line of the configuration with the following line, it works. restrict default kod nomodify notrap noquery But with this, i am allowing other servers to use this server a ntp (which I wouldn't like to). Why this machine tries to use ntp server of its own (to snyc time) and why it is not working though i have the entry "restrict 127.0.0.1" ??
I 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!)
I am facing issue in ntp, it is getting killed frequently. see below error; # /etc/init.d/ntpd status ntpd dead but pid file exists After starting service it is works fine but again after sometimes it get in dead postition.

I can log in and use sudo just fine but I don't have access to certain things in my menu (i.e. "Add/Remove Software") and I can't open the User Manager. I manually edited the /etc/group file as root and added my username (username@domain) to the appropriate groups but still no luck.

I'm having a problem with the time on one of my servers jumping forward into the future. We run serveral CentOS 5.4 servers running Xen, some up to date and some a little older. The one in question is running 2.6.18-164.el5xen, with xen-libs-3.0.3-94.el5_4.2 and xen-3.0.3-94.el5_4.2. On this server are several Xen virtual machines, also running CentOS 5.4 with kernel 2.6.18-164.el5xen. One in particular has problems with the clock keeping proper time.
We use NTP (ntpd) to sync time to a central server in the company. Our NTP set-up works fine, and we have problems on only a couple of servers out of many. The problem I see is that one one particular Xen virtual machine, the clock will suddenly jump forward into the future, usually by several minutes but once by more than an hour. This has obvious implications for software running on the machine. Software such as Oracle grid control agent will restart itself under the (incorrect) assumption that it has been hung for several minutes with no activity. Oracle database will cope gracefully, but applications that refer to the clock will be confused.
We detect these time jumps because we have Nagios checking the clock on each host against the centralised time server (Nagios's check_ntp plugin). Nagios will suddenly report a clock offset that is miles into the future. Following the time jump, ntpd on the host in question will re-sync the time. Ntpd keeps the time steady, ticking just a few milliseconds per second until real time catches up with the server. i.e. Nagios will report the time as being 10 minutes ahead, then a minute later the host will be 9 minutes ahead, and then a further minute later the host will be 8 minutes ahead of real time. The clock on the host stays running very slow until it eventually is correct.

I am trying to set time using settimeofday in linux. But it sets local time. i.e works like SetLocalTime in windows. But I want to set system time(like SetSystemTime in windows). I could'nt find no other api in linux. What should i do? I had tried with mktime/gmtime apis
View 3 Replies View RelatedI hopelessly tried to find answers for my problems but I could not find a single person complaining about this one: I am using a Lenovo G550 laptop (which has an NVIDIA graphics card) accompanied by a samsung screen using TwinView configuration. I have some special effects enabled and they all seem to work fine.
My main problem is: When I double click on the top panel in a window and maximize its size (it can be an application, a directory window or a terminal, anything..) on Natty, I sometimes can reduce its size back by double clicking on the Natty panel and sometimes this does not work! In times this does not work (reducing by double clicking again), I have to use the rectangle button in the panel in order to reduce it back. In times it works, I can simply double click on Natty top panel or left click on the panel, hold it, and pull it down.
What the hell can be the reason? I somehow observed a strange relationship between this behaviour and thunderbird but I am not 100% sure. Can anyone offer some help?
And another irrelevant question:
Is there a way to make the mail/pidgin indicator that turns green when a new message/mail recieved jump or move or do some action? Because when working full screen it is really hard to notice that thing going green. Previously on 10.10 if i'm not mistaken you could make the pidgin indicator jump high and low as a notifier. Is there a way in 11.04 to achieve this?
I m trying to take a console of linux machine using putty. Whenever i connect to the machine and give password details to log into the machine it hangs for some time and then it allow the login.

Hoping to get better results with ntpdate, I stopped NTPS and tried :
Code:
# ntpdate ntp.skynet.be

# ntpdate -ud ntp.skynet.be

I am running Debian Lenny 64b, and every packages are totally updated. I have 25 identical servers. And there is just one giving me this problem. From what I see, it is not a connection/FW issue since ntpdate get replies from the ntp server (ntp.skynet.be is my isp's stratum 2 ntp server).
ntpd startup fails during boot.Does startup just fine manually from command line once it's booted though. Any suggestions what I might adjust?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI cant get ntpd to synchronize with the ntp servers. I have a CentOS 5.3 32 bit Virtual Machine. I'm in USA on Pacific Standard Time. Here's all configuration and other important information for troubleshooting. Is there anything wrong with my config? btw, I used wireshark to look at the UDP packets - I dont get any responses from any of the servers back. I only see requests going out from my server, but no response. Is this a firewall Issue? If it is, then do I need to just enable UDP port 123 on the firewall?

I have dhcp3-server (isc-dhcp-server) installed on my Debian and now I got a question about how it's giving the IP addresses to new devices.
For example: I connected my laptop and dhcp server gave me 192.168.1.5 address. Will it always give me the same ip address when I connect my laptop or it will eventually change after some time (week-month)? If it's not changing it, then I am wrong about this.
BUT...If I am somehow correct and if it will change in a week and give me another random (like 192.168.1.8) IP even I won't change my laptop network adapter, is it possible to configure dhcp server to always give same IP address depending on what MAC it is?
To make it clear, I want that when I connect new device (new laptop/pc) dhcp server would give it random IP but same time it would note the MAC address and never change the IP on that MAC.
I know about MAC filters, but setting filters is when you know MAC address since beginning and want to assign IP for it, but in my situation I don't know the MAC address.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I travel, I would like to tell my laptop that I, as a user, am in a different time zone that what the OS may think is local. And I would like the clock on my desktop (default Gnome bar date/time display) to show the local time.
Instead, I currently have to use sudo and change the system time... (click on the clock, choose time settings, set system time -- there are no other choices given). The applet thing allows me to add other locations, but they only show up if I click on the icon, as extra times below the main one.
Am I missing something? Using the wrong app?
