Hello,
Maybe should you check if your NTP server can be upgraded to a new one.
There might be a flaw in the implementation of the protocol that might
prevent the Filer to correctly understand the time sync message or on the
other hand, a flaw that might prevent NTP server to correctly understand
the request from the Filer.
I must say that I'm very surprised that a Linux NTP does not work
correctly with a Filer...
Indeed, we rely on a NTP server on Windows NT 4.0 which is W32Time from
Microsoft, a very simple product, and I haven't got any problem
synchronizing our Filers with it. Since MS is well known for their
"particular" implentation of public protocols, I would not be surprised to
have problems with it, which it's not the case!
Kind regards,

why ?...
