I want to set up an ntp client/server for my internal network (of course on
an OpenBSD box). Looking through the documentation, it would seem that I
only need to creat a /etc/ntp.conf containing:
negril:etc {105} cat ntp.conf
server tick.usno.navy.mil
server tock.usno.navy.mil
driftfile /etc/ntp.drift
I tested this by setting my mac's clock using the new server. Everything
seems to work fine. My question is: are there any issues I should be aware of
concerning ntp? Does anybody have any pointers to a beginners quick start
guide? (One not so painfully detailed as the web pages that come with the ntp
package. I find a quick start much more useful the first time I encounter a
new utility.) Thanks.
Aaron
