(it started doing this one or two months ago) after that is sais that ntpd
is started succesfully. I doubt this because I start noticing slight (1/2
minute) time differences with other machines.
First I thought it was a firewall problem, but this weekend I connetcted on
the same network connection another FC6 machine, with the same
Firewall/Selinux and NTP settings. This machine did not give the error.
The only difference between the machines is the actual hardware and on
machine 1 more FC6 packages are installed.

Where do/can I look to solve this problem?


First try "service ntp restart" from a running system. If that fails,
No problem doing thsi on the running system

chances are you have a faulty step tickers file. If it works, make
sure that DNS is available when ntp is started at boot time or that
/etc/ntp/step.tickers uses ip addresses instead of hostnames.
Changing to ip numbers in the /etc/ntp/step.tickers to make the match
exactly to the machine that works did not have any effect. Still I get the
error at boot-time. I'm sure the network is acctivated before starting ntp.


Any other ideas?
