Hi *.

I'm using openntpd on over 30 servers but one keeps drifting with "unsynced" status. Any ideas?

Code:
# ntpd -dsv
adjtimex returns frequency of 500.000000ppm
ntp engine ready

You say that you have 30 servers and only one has a problem. The only person who can answer your question is you!

If I knew the answer, I wouldn't ask here. Kernel is the same, config fot ntpd is the same [simple "servers 10.4.0.1"] but somehow this machine drifts away.

Can you rule out whether it's openntpd at fault? You'll have busybox ntpd installed, try running that for 24 hours and see if the drift gets worse with it.

OK, that's something. Busybox's ntpd doesn't drift.

Code:
# busybox ntpd -d -n -p 10.4.0.1

So it's related to openntpd. Same binary package emerged on every machine (6.0_p1), same config ("servers 10.4.0.1"), same options in conf.d (NTPD_OPTS="-s"), same kernel. Any ideas?

Does openntpd make use of the /var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift file? Try removing it if it's there, maybe it got calibrated wrong.

Yes, it was using that file. After removing ntpd started with:
Code:
# ntpd -dsv
adjtimex returns frequency of 0.000000ppm
/var/lib/openntpd/ntpd.drift is empty
ntp engine ready

and so far, after 24h, is still in "synced" state

# ntpctl -s all

Thanks a lot! :)
