Title: enable time server SME6.0.1
Post by: mike_mattos on April 06, 2004, 06:54:19 PM
My old reliable Windows D4 time client has had problems with SME6

I found an old thread including the tip
<<
(enable broadcast ) Ah, but they can be set to.

in /etc/ntp.conf, add this line:

broadcast 192.168.1.255

Better to put it in a template, of course.
>>

I changed /etc/ntp.conf , adding
broadcast 192.168.0.1  ( the machines local IP )
and D4 immediately worked!

I'm editing etc/e-smith/templates/etc/ntp.conf/00timeServer
 
iptraf isn't showing unusual activity

not sure why this was needed, any comments out there ?
