Novell LINUX ENTERPRISE SERVER 10 SP2 - INSTALLATION AND ADMINISTRATION Installation Manual page 630

The servers and other time sources for the client to query are listed in the lower part.
Modify this list as needed with Add, Edit, and Delete. Display Log provides the possi-
bility to view the log files of your client.
Click Add to add a new source of time information. In the following dialog, select the
type of source with which the time synchronization should be made. The following
options are available:
Server
Another dialog enables you to select an NTP server (as described in Section 32.1.1,
"Quick NTP Client Configuration" (page 610)). Activate Use for Initial Synchro-
nization to trigger the synchronization of the time information between the server
and the client when the system is booted. Options allows you to specify additional
options for xntpd. Refer to /usr/share/doc/packages/xntp-doc (part
of the xntp-doc package) for detailed information.
Peer
A peer is a machine to which a symmetric relationship is established: it acts both
as a time server and as a client. To use a peer in the same network instead of a
server, enter the address of the system. The rest of the dialog is identical to the
Server dialog.
Radio Clock
To use a radio clock in your system for the time synchronization, enter the clock
type, unit number, device name, and other options in this dialog. Click Driver
Calibration to fine-tune the driver. Detailed information about the operation of a
local radio clock is available in /usr/share/doc/packages/xntp-doc/
refclock.html.
Outgoing Broadcast
Time information and queries can also be transmitted by broadcast in the network.
In this dialog, enter the address to which such broadcasts should be sent. Do not
activate broadcasting unless you have a reliable time source like a radio controlled
clock.
Incoming Broadcast
If you want your client to receive its information via broadcast, enter the address
from which the respective packets should be accepted in this fields.
