[ILUG] Time Sync

[ILUG] Time Sync

Hi,

I have two queries to ask:

1. We have a FTX machine which does not support NTP and we want to synchronize to some other
machine.We want to use rdate for time synchronization. But everytime we issue a command like

rdate <server-name>

It gives us the error

rdate: connect: Connection refused

We have cheched out /etc/inetd.conf file 
Time command have been commented out for tcp on both sides(client as well as server). We have entry of hosts
in the /etc/hosts file.


Please follow up , what could be wrong in our configuration?

2. If client machine get ahead of time, how will rdate behaves?
