Re: [hobbit] Ntpdate problem

OK, thanks.

The "stratum 16" would seem to indicate that your NTP server is not
properly syncing with a higher ranking (lower stratum) server. As a
result ntpdate views this server as unsuitable for getting time from. The ntpd process is still responding, which is why bb would pass the
test, but there's still something wrong with the configuration. Start
with checking the NTP communication between your NTP server and the
server it is getting time from.

I have an NTP test running against a server.  The ntpdate command that
Hobbit issues comes back with this:

hobbit1:/etc # ntpdate -u -q -p 2 172.17.1.242
server 172.17.1.242, stratum 16, offset 0.150246, delay 0.02640
13 Sep 08:07:54 ntpdate[1055]: no server suitable for synchronization
found

Which turns the icon red.  BB used xntpc against the same machine,
which works.  I'm not familiar with ntpdate, what would be causing it
to fail?

Thanks.
