[NTLUG:Discuss] CentOS server not keeping time

[Neil Aggarwal]

Hey everyone:

I have some additional information:

With ntpd running, if I do this command:
ntpdate -u 0.centos.pool.ntp.org
the time goes back to normal so it is obviously not a firewall or
connectivity
issue.  I did that a few days back and then the time is off again so I think
this is only a temporary fix.

If I do ntpq -p, I get this output:
     remote           refid      st t when poll reach   delay   offset
jitter

0.000

It looks like the servers are still initializing, but my system has been
running
for quite some time  update gives me 39 min.  That should be enough time
for the servers to sync.

Any idea why the server is not syncing?

Thanks,
  Neil
