[SOLVED] NTP server refusing requestes?

RouterOS General
1

Hello,

I’ve installed ntp server package on my RB2011.
All packages are version 6.25 and firmware is 3.19

This is configuration:

[admin@router] /system ntp server> print 
              enabled: yes
            broadcast: no
            multicast: no
             manycast: no
  broadcast-addresses:

From my PC, I can check

$ rdate -p time.nist.gov
Fri Feb 13 19:13:10 CET 2015

but when I try

$ rdate -p 10.0.0.1 # address of router
rdate: Could not connect socket: Connection refused

Am I missing something, because this looks like non-working package for me?
There is nothing in log about it.
Any ideas?

Looks like rdate is not NTP client but old Time Protocol.
Qoute from Wikipedia:

Rdate uses the Time Protocol. The Time Protocol is generally considered obsolete and has been replaced by the Network Time Protocol (NTP).

That is why it didn’t worked as expected.

I’ve tried with ntpd and it works.
So, everything is OK with NTP server package for Mikrotik.
