[sudo] password for ****:
Current default time zone: 'Europe/London'
Local time is now: Wed Apr 4 21:40:28 BST 2012.
Universal Time is now: Wed Apr 4 20:40:28 UTC 2012.
Should be 22:40.
NTP is definitely running;
Code:
:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/ntp status
* NTP server is running
These are the servers that I'm using;
Code:
:~$ grep ^server /etc/ntp.conf or grep ^server /etc/ntp.conf.dhcp
/etc/ntp.conf:server ntp2a.mcc.ac.uk
/etc/ntp.conf:server ntp2b.mcc.ac.uk
/etc/ntp.conf:server ntp2.ja.net
grep: or: No such file or directory
grep: grep: No such file or directory
grep: ^server: No such file or directory
grep: /etc/ntp.conf.dhcp: No such file or directory
Can't seem to reach any of the servers - firewall problem?
Code:
:~$ ntptrace ntp2b.mcc.ac.uk
ntpq: write to dir.mcc.ac.uk failed: Operation not permitted
