No, the server is on a fixed IP, internally and externally.

Anne,
please check your /etc/ntp.conf for the "server" statement; CentOS original is server 0.rhel.pool.ntp.org server 1.rhel.pool.ntp.org server 2.rhel.pool.ntp.org These 2 server ips you listed do not belong to this pool (you can check via dns), and resolved backwardly their names do not sound like they are ntp servers. You should find out why your ntp tries to send to them (and what). The "total synchronizations ..." line at least seems to say that your ntp sync works - you could check that with ntpdate against a server from the above pool to be sure. Dirk --On 15.

You have fare more 'restricts' than I have, but apart from that the main difference seems to be the presence of two IPV6 lines. What do you think?

In fact it is not the same addresses each day. The day before I mentioned it, the report gave the IP of Research Machines, in Oxfordshire.
