How do I find my local sub-net, to broadcast NTP
in [Debian]
|
From: Nathaniel Homier on 20 Jun 2008 15:40 I am trying to get NTP to broadcast the time on my local subnet. I have the ntp.conf uncommented in the proper place. I put 192.168.1.255 as my sub-net but I am not sure. I have a cable modem>Linksys 4 port router>my computer. My computer's IP address is 192.168.1.100 and my router is 192.168.1.1. Gnome-network-tools shows in devices under the broadcast column an IP of 192.168.1.255. So I assumed that 192.168.1.255 is the sub-net, or is it 192.168.1.0.

So if I put 192.168.1.255 in ntp.conf, then the router will get the ntp packets from 192.168.1.100 and broadcast them to other computers on the lan.
