The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Solaris 10, NTP no server for synchronization found

Asked by ch9999 in Sun Solaris, Unix Setup, Unix Networking

Tags: solaris, NTP

I have a Solaris 10 server that is not serving/getting time correctly.  
When I run a ntpq -p  I can see that none have the * indicator that I was expecting( and I have this on a solaris 8 server)
 ntpq -p
     remote           refid      st t when poll reach   delay   offset    disp
=============================================================================
 time.nist.gov   0.0.0.0         16 -    -   64    0     0.00    0.000 16000.0
 nist1.symmetric 0.0.0.0         16 -    -   64    0     0.00    0.000 16000.0
 time-A.timefreq 0.0.0.0         16 -    -   64    0     0.00    0.000 16000.0
 time-b.nist.gov 0.0.0.0         16 -    -   64    0     0.00    0.000 16000.0

NTP.conf
# pwd
/etc/inet
# more ntp.conf
server  time.nist.gov
server  nist1.datum.com
server  time-a.timefreq.bldrdoc.gov
server  time-b.nist.gov
server  time-c.timefreq.bldrdoc.gov

driftfile /var/ntp/ntp.drift

I can ping time.nist.gov and I have a solaris 8 server using it fine
NTP is running
ps -ef | grep ntp
    root  5740  5333   0 15:14:29 console     0:00 grep ntp
    root  5295     1   0   Sep 23 ?           0:53 /usr/lib/inet/xntpd
I have restarted NTP and it says no server suitable for synchronization found
I have run a ntpdate -u -d time.nist.gov and I don't get any failure

Any ideas on what it wrong?  Or a work around that can get me going?  I have other servers looking at this box for time and this is causing us issues.  I do have a Solaris 8 server that is working correctly.  I have compared setup and so far I don't see anything that stands out.  

Thank you for your help.
