Re: ntp won't work

Thanks for the replies.  I was able to enable my logs and run ntpdate with
a server but I am still getting the same problems.  I also opened port 123
on udp and tcp but that had no effect, and I really don't understand why
you need to open a port in order to just query the correct time.  Here is
the feedback i get from the logs:

Feb 24 14:17:19 bilbo ntpd[16556]: ntpd 4.1.2a@1:4.1.2a-2 Tue Nov 11
11:33:28 UTC 2003 (2)
Feb 24 14:17:19 bilbo ntpd[16556]: signal_no_reset: signal 13 had flags
4000000 Feb 24 14:17:19 bilbo ntpd[16556]: precision = 6 usec
Feb 24 14:17:19 bilbo ntpd[16556]: kernel time discipline status 0040
Feb 24 14:17:37 bilbo ntpdate[16560]: no server suitable for
synchronization found

Any more suggestions?
