This is a little wierd. For some reason, all the time, when I run ntpdate
from the command line, it works fine. But, it doesn't work that well when
I do
/etc/init.d/ntpd restart
- there is a line;
/usr/sbin/ntpdate -t 5 -s -b -p 8 -u ntp0.esat.net
and most of the time it's failing. Which is wierd. It always works from
the commandline. I recently added an
echo /usr/sbin/ntpdate -t 5 -s -b -p 8 -u ntp0.esat.net
before it, to make sure it was printing what I was expecting. Now it
always works. WTF ?
