sircolin · Aug 19, 2010

I have just noticed that the time on my proxmox machine is wrong, it is one hour ahead of the time here in the uk.
I have proxmox set to Europe/ London

How do i correct this

Please fix your NTP - I guess you block NTP traffic at your firewall?

sircolin · Aug 20, 2010

DOH!

I never even thought about shorewall blocking ntp traffic i added

# Permit NTP Traffic to Proxmox
ACCEPT net $FW tcp 123

Then i changed

broadcast 192.124.165.255

To

broadcast 10.1.1.255

Then ran

ntpq -p

Which Outputted

remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter
==============================================================================
cdns.ovh.net 213.xxx.xxx.249 2 u 54 64 7 0.291 -12.402 9.318

Now the gui displays the correct time and the local rules might make life a little less time consuming lmao

Thanks for you help dietmar.
