RE: Iseries Time Server question

Yes it is possible.  Use iSeries Navigator Network, Servers, TCP/IP,
SNTP.  Right click on SNTP and choose properties.  Notice there are two
check boxes, one for client and one for server.  Make sure to only
select the server box and then go to the server tab and uncheck "server
must be sync..."

Subject: Iseries Time Server question


I am trying to synch up laptops in the field with the Iseries system
time.  The laptops do not have access to the internet.  I have read that
the Iseries can act as an SNTP client and get time from the internet.
The issue is I only want it to serve up the time, not act as a client to
get time from the outside.

Is it possible to set up the Iseries as a SNTP server only, and if so
what are the steps to do it.
