NTP config help

[raj sourabh]

Hi All,

My production platform is a closed system (without internet). I have
configured a NTP server (on rhel5.5) which is started and running without
error. The problem is that all windows client machines are able to
sychronise with my NTP server but RHEL client machines are not able to synch
the time.

my client config are;

*/etc/ntp.conf*
**
*server 192.168.6.9
restrict default ignore
restrict 127.0.0.1
restrict 192.168.6.9 mask 255.255.255.255 nomodify notrap noquery
driftfile /var/lib/ntp/drift
*

i have entry of my NTP server name in step-tickers as well. when I start the
service on client I get;

[root at TESTAPP ~]# service ntpd restart
Shutting down ntpd:                                        [  OK  ]
ntpd: Synchronizing with time server:                      [FAILED]
Starting ntpd:                                             [  OK  ]
[root at TESTAPP ~]# ntpdate -q 192.168.6.9
server 192.168.6.9, stratum 10, offset -0.001541, delay 0.02571
10 Feb 08:12:25 ntpdate[8822]: no server suitable for synchronization found
[root at TESTAPP ~]#

 NTP server config is;

*server 127.127.1.0*
*restrict default kod nomodify notrap noquery nopeer
restrict 127.127.1.0  mask 255.255.255.0 nomodify notrap noquery
restrict 192.168.11.0 mask 255.255.255.0 nomodify notrap
restrict 127.0.0.1*
*fudge           127.127.1.0 stratum 10
driftfile       /var/lib/ntp/drift
broadcastdelay  0.008
keys            /etc/ntp/keys
logfile         /var/log/ntp
tos orphan 10
*


As mentioned above, with this server configuration windows clients are
successfully synchronizing time with ntp server. but rhel servers are not.
any help??

Thanks,
