[NTLUG:Discuss] Time Sync Server?

[Stephen Davidson]

Greetings, Michael.

I wonder if I have a different problem?  I have to convert the names to IP addresses before I can try them;
davidson:/home/steve # /usr/sbin/ntptimeset -s -S 2 -V 2 -v
15 Oct 06:24:51 ntptimeset[2502]: ntpdate 4.1.1 at 1.786 Tue May 28 09:19:36 UTC 2002 (1)
No response from any of 4 servers, network problem?
