problem.) It is also possible to have a typing error in the /etc/ntp.conf le that causes the needed key
to not be included in the “trustedkey” list.
Unix-like Platforms: Broadcast/Multicast NTP Client Setup
Broadcast/multicast client setup is relatively simple, if:
• You have been able to successfully communicate with the Sonoma on your network.
• Your Sonoma has been congured to perform broadcasts or multicasts by running the ntpconfig
shell script. (This is not the factory default conguration, so be sure to run ntpconfig.) If you are
going to use MD5 authentication, your Sonoma must have been congured to operate with authenti-
cation in the broadcast/multicast mode, and you must know which of the trusted keys it is using for
broadcast/multicast operation. The example Sonoma conguration shown in Configuring the NTP
Server above will be assumed in the example conguration commands shown here.
• You have installed NTP on your client computer.
• You have successfully performed the Unix-like Platforms: MD5 Authenticated NTP Client Setup
on your client computer, if you plan to use MD5 authentication.
Configure NTP Client for Broadcast
You must edit the ntp.conf le which ntpd, the NTP daemon, looks for by default in the /etc direc-
tory. Assuming that your Sonoma server has been congured to use key 2 for broadcast authentica-
tion as shown in the example in Configuring the NTP Server above, make sure that key 2 is included
in the trustedkey line, and add this line to the end of the ntp.conf le:
broadcastclient
If you are not using MD5 authentication, you would add these lines:
disable auth
broadcastclient
You may remove the line added previously in Unix-like Platforms: Basic NTP Client Setup:
server 192.168.1.120
or the authenticated version added in Unix-like Platforms: MD5 Authenticated NTP Client Setup:
server 192.168.1.120 key 1
Configure NTP Client for Multicast
You must edit the ntp.conf le which ntpd, the NTP daemon, looks for by default in the the /etc
directory. And add these lines for multicast:
multicastclient 224.0.1.1
or for IPv6:
