Re: [CentOS] broadcastclient does not work on CentOS 4.1

This works. It needed the "disable auth" line. Thanks.

Hello,

While I don't know what's wrong with your specific ntp.conf I do have one for Centos-4.1.x86_64 that works with broadcastclient:

driftfile /etc/ntp/drift disable auth broadcastclient

Cheers, Peter

This ntp.conf file works fine under RedHat 9:

authenticate no #enable auth driftfile /etc/ntp/drift keys /etc/ntp/ntp.keys server 127.127.1.0 fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10 trustedkey 1 enable bclient broadcastclient

However, it doesn't work on CentOS 4.1. ntpd complains with this error message:

Unable to listen for broadcasts, no broadcast interfaces available

Has anyone gotten ntp broadcastclient to work under CentOS? This is very similar to the problem explained by this email thread:

Any help is appreciated.
