Setting time with rdate ( SCO x RED HAT )
|
|
| Antonio Mano 2004-11-09, 5:45 pm |
| I have thre machines:
One with SCO Unixware, say machine A
The other two with RED HAT AS, late sy machines B and C
I need to syncronize the time between all those machines. For this Iīm
using the rdate command on machines B and C picking the time from
machine A
Ex:. on machine B : rdate -s A ( itīs ip address )
on machine C : rdate -s A ( itīs ip address )
The problem is that Iīm getting different results on the machines ( B
and C ).
I revised the environment of the machines and itīs looking the same on
both machines.
Can anyone help me to find way iīm getting different results with the
same time server?

What are the different results? Different time, timezones?

Is there a reason you can't use ntp? rdate is a rather brute-force means
of setting the clock.

Different time. In one machine i get the time of the machine A. In the
other, I get the time 2 hour ahead. I think machines B and C are in
different timezones, but this is just a guess, because I already tried
to set all locale variables to the same values and doesnīt work even.
I think I am doing something wrong, but I canīt realise what it is.

I donīt know ntp. My RH doesnīt appear to have a ntp command. If it
need to access the internet I canīt use it, because the machines are
not connected to the internet.

You set up one of your machines to be the server, and let the other
synchronize with it.
