I am bringing up xntpd on an isolated network containing a Sun
SparcStation 1+ running SunOS 4.1.1. xntpd is up and running with a local
clock. When I try to use xntpdc it fails with xntpdc: ntp/udp: unknown service.
Now I have modified the /etc/services file as follows:
ntp 123/udp # Network Time Protocol
Beliving that ntp sould be a udp protocall. I see xntpdc doing:
server_entry = getservbyname("ntp", "udp");
What am I missing?

To find which system is the NIS master, type 'ypcat ypservers'. One of those systems is the master. Mike

I suspect you meant to say "type 'ypcat -k ypservers'". However, the right way to find the master for the services.byname map is to use the command 'ypwhich -m services.byname'.

First rather than modifing the ntp entry in /etc/services you should add an additional entry identical to the first except for udp instead of tcp. Second if you are running YP you will need to modify the yp data for services and do a cd /var/yp;make services. I assume you know about running tickadj -Asq before starting xntpd on a sun. -- Craig Zook - zook@sweetpea.jsc.nasa.gov Systems Engineeering and Administration McDonnell Douglas Space Systems Corp. - Engineering Services Division (713) 283-4206
