Hey all

I've started a ntp-daemon using "/etc/init.d/ntpd
start", but if I try "nmap localhost" afterwards no program is registered
at port 123  :(

If I run "ntpq -p", it is indicating that the server is somewhat running.

[root@traej /]# ntpq -p
     remote           refid      st t when poll reach   delay   offset  jitter
==============================================================================
 serv010.worldon gps.dix.dk       2 u   14   64    1    8.444   -1.491   0.008
 skuld.inet.tele ripe.tele.dk     2 u   19   64    1   13.887   -0.607   0.008

Is there something I have missunderstood, or shouldn't I be able to see
my ntpd registered at port 123?? I'm using redhat 7.3!!

Thank for the help in advance  :)

hi again

The problem solved itself...I've found out that after a certain time, my
client can connect to my server  :)
...but still I will be very happy if anyone can explain to me why ntpd is
not registered in the portmapper at port 123. Anyway, the port must open,
since it is possible for my client to connect to the server.
