hello, i am trying to configure Network time protocol on a solaris ver. 8 machine. the steps which i had taken was initally to make a softlink from the serial port to the GPS receiver . eg: ln -s /dev/ttya /dev/hpgps1.
then had configured /etc/inet/ntp.conf where the following was lines were edited : server 127.127.26.1 prefer and
server 127.127.1.0 (local time). then i ran the xntpd deamon. then i type ntpq -p: only the local time is running. the gps unit isnt working. i had checked the serial port and its working fine. the "when" and "poll" for the gps unit isnt running. its stationary at "t=0". can someone help me fix this problem or give me an alternative web site where i can download a basic ntp SW and run it on Solaris 8. thanks and hope to hear from soneone soon. regard, DInesh
 
i dont think so cause the gps unit is connected directly do my Sun server serial port.\. what do i have to do in this case to change the sub net ? i am using subnet of 255.255.254.0 now.
