Setting up NTP Clients:

Download the Extras Folder from

www.dtvideolabs.com/download.html

. Once

opened, move the ntp.conf file within the ‘ntp.conf for client’ folder to your Home
Directory.

Launch Apple’s Terminal Application and enter the following command:

sudo cp ntp.conf /etc

You may get a warning and may be asked for your password.

The configuration file for the clients contains the following text:

server 192.168.1.100 maxpoll 64

This line tells ntp to sync to an NTP server at 192.168.1.100 and to poll it every
minute.

Once this file has been properly moved into the /etc directory with the Unix
command, 192.168.1.100 will show up in the field next to Set Date and Time
Automatically. Entering 192.168.1.100 directly into the field would not tell the client
to poll the server more often. The checkbox to the left should be enabled. Once
complete, restart the computer.
