Hi guys,
I am running FreeBSD 8.1 with two jails, but for some reason the clocks are out of sync, by a day in one case. While looking at options I found advice that I must use OpenNTPd for jails.
I have installed OpenNTPd as follows on all clients:
/etc/rc.conf
/usr/local/etc/ntpd.conf
/etc/ipfw.rules
I first stopped ntpd but when I start OpenNTPd on either of the jails I get this:
nb. There is no error posted when I start it on the host.
The status shows normal on all clients:
When I stop it I get this on all the clients:
nb. These pids are shown in top as ntpd prior to stopping it.
I get this from ntpdate on all clients:
nb. the dates shown are still out of sync.
I have confirmed the port is opened to the host and clients:
This is the only thing new in /var/log/messages:
It appears in all clients logs.
Am I missing something? Ideally I want to use the host as a local time server and update the jails directly. but for now I just need them all syncing to the same source.
