- I would like to try broadcast mode NTP, and seem to have no luck. On one
- subnet I have an xntpd3 process running with broadcast to my second
- subnet. Etherfind shows that I get a broadcast packet arriving on second
- subnet every 64 seconds.
-
- On that subnet I have a second xntp3 client with all peer lines commented
- out and a single line of
-
- broadcastclient yes
-
- I have no evidence that it is working. Querying with ntpq shows no
- associations, and after setting it to a wrong time there is no evidence
- that the time gets reset (waited over ten minutes).
-
- Hints, clues etc much appreciated!
