Goodmorning,
i have a question for you: there is a way for me to syncronize my UNIX machine keeping the time value from an NT Server??? (like "net time" on NT or Timeserv service to NT from NT)

On Solaris...

1. Copy over /etc/inet/ntp.server to /etc/inet/ntp.conf as:

# cp /etc/inet/ntp.server /etc/inet/ntp.conf

2. edit ntp.conf file
add a line like :
server time_server_host_name

3. save the file and exit.

4. Start xntpd daemon

#/usr/lib/inet/xntpd

5. Verify the server setup

# ntpq -p

hope this help

In AIX, you can setup crontab to run the following command on a regular basis:

/usr/sbin/ntpdate host_name

Where host_name is the host name or IP address of the NT server you are getting the time from.

install ntp server on your nt box and tell your unix box to synchronize the time with nt.
