Please make sure you have open firewall port 123 udp both ways. You might want to run tcpdump to investigate the traffic when you issued the ntpdate command. For example interface name fxp0 (ifconfig -a shows it) tcpdump -ni fxp0 port 123 Cheers, Ed On Tue, 2003-09-30 at 15:45, Odhiambo Washington wrote: > * Lachlan <lachlan@fatpanda.net> [20030930 10:11]: wrote: > > Hello, > > > > > > http://www.time.za.net/ > > > > The above link might be of use to you. > > > It sure did, but still seems I am stuck.
