(usr-tc) NTP time sync
I am trying to use an NTP server to sync my time on my Hiperarc. I issue the command set ntp primary_server x.x.x.x It accepts the command without error, but it doesn't sync the time. It stays the same as it was before I issued the command, and it doesn't match the time reported by the NTP server. Anything else I need to do to get this to work? -- Scot - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.

You need to add: enable ntp and it should sync up. On 14 Jun 00, at 21:50, Scot Desort wrote:

OK, so now how do you account for the fact the the ARC translates the Easdtern time zone NTP server I'm using into GMT? -- Scot

You should be fine, NTP *always* uses GMT to pass around dates. The timezone on systems is (should) only be an issue of how it displays the value to you. -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456 - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.

I'm confused.... I downloaded AboutTime and installed it on my win98 machine. Then I point the hiper Arc to that machine as the primary NTP. I then enable NTP and wait..nothing happens..So then I look at where the AboutTime program is getting its' time(192.43.244.18)..and add the secondary NTP to my hiper Arc ..and wait..and then my time changes to GMT, so I guess that AboutTime is not acting like a server...although I have all the server boxes checked. If I leave the hiper Arc to have GMT and my radius Server has PST..wont that throw all my users off by 8 hours? Ken At 05:55 AM 6/15/00, you wrote:

I am running About Time fine here. It will do standard SNTP just fine. I am not sure About Time does standard NTP server though but it will take time from a standard NTP server through its client mode. Make sure under the Servers tab you enable the servers. As for it being off 8 hours, No. NTP uses GMT to pass time around. A local offset is used by whatever OS or machine software you use to display things in local time.
