| Hi,
I have tryed two things :
1) I have setup an XNTP server on a UNIX system.
The ntp.conf file contained :
peer 127.127.1.1 version 2 (I also tryed server 127.127.1.1)
the router was configured as follow :
NTP server unix-system version 2
the result od show status and show assoc is as follow :
equit-br#show ntp assoc
address ref clock st when poll reach delay offset disp
~205.210.189.1 0.0.0.0 16 - 64 0 0.0 0.00 16000.
* master (synced), # master (unsynced), + selected, - candidate, ~ configured
equit-br#show ntp status
Clock is unsynchronized, stratum 16, no reference clock
nominal freq is 250.0000 Hz, actual freq is 250.0000 Hz, precision is 2**19
reference time is B6C80167.EDDC8CE4 (09:27:51.929 EST Wed Mar 5 1997)
clock offset is 0.00 msec, root delay is 0.00 msec
root dispersion is 0.00 msec, peer dispersion is 0.00 msec
equit-br#show clock
.09:29:14.593 EST Wed Mar 5 1997
The results of the debug ntp are in .0
2) I tryed to avoid the Unix system altogheter by configuring one of the router as a master ntp server.
router_1
---------
NTP master 10
router_2
--------
NTP server router_1 version 2
Both routers were DECBRouters 90T2 running IOS 10.2.5. However I also tryed with Cisco 2503 running 10.3.12
Any Idea what I am doing wrong ????

| Hi,
I found a note on http://www.nexial.nl/cgi-bin/cisco (which is
great).
When configuring a router as a master NTP, you have to set the time
with the clock set command before the router starts to serve time to
other routers. Now that I did this, I get the following on router_2
trying to synchronize to router_1 :
on router_2
------------
eqmarbr1#show ntp assoc
address ref clock st when poll reach delay
offset disp
#~205.210.189.100 127.0.0.1 10 4 64 3 85.0
2.14 7887.3
* master (synced), # master (unsynced), + selected, - candidate, ~
configured
eqmarbr1#show ntp status
Clock is unsynchronized, stratum 16, reference is 205.210.189.100
nominal freq is 250.0000 Hz, actual freq is 250.0000 Hz, precision is
2**19
reference time is AF697DB9.A80E33AD (11:31:05.656 EDT Sun Apr 4 1993)
clock offset is 2.14 msec, root delay is 78.93 msec
root dispersion is 30023424.16 msec, peer dispersion is 463.01 msec
eqmarbr1#show clock
.10:00:16.356 EST Wed Mar 5 1997
So it seems like the time have synchrozied after a few minutes.
However, why does the show ntp assoc command display the ntp server
as being #~ (master unsynced), I would assume that it would show up
as master (synced) (*).

note : I still was not able to get NTP to synchronize to a UNIX
system running XNTP (maybe I have to reset the time on the UNIX
server...I'll give it a try)
