NTP problems
The output from ntpq -c la is as follows:
<pre>
ind assID status conf reach auth condition last_event cnt
===========================================================
1 33260 9014 yes yes none reject reachable 1
I believe ntpd -q should do pretty much the same as ntpdate, but in my case, stopping the ntpd service, then issusing this command results in absolutely nothing happening, indicating that ntpd cannot sync and exit.
I have 2 Macs attached to my network, and both exhibit exactly the same behaviour - you'd start to think it was a network problem at this stage, right? However, monitoring network traffic (both from Macs and from within router), I can see that when I run ntpd -q, there is absolutely no network activity as a result of this command.
