I am trying to give IPv6 support for NTP server in my ntp scripts.
Yet i have set the IPv6 NTP server directly by giving its IP in ntp.conf and restart the ntpd .
Now in the logs of ntpq flash value become 1600 and stratum is set to 16 but the original stratum of this server is 4.
Then i tried whether ntpdate is running or not....and found that the ntpdate is not running.
Now how i can run ntpdate command or how i can correct the flash value..
Thanks in advance
ntpdate
is not a daemon that runs all the time, it's intended for interactive use or in scripts to poll an NTP server once.ntpd
is the daemon process you need to look for.
