TIME SYNCH: Unable to synchronize time: Timeout.
I get TIME SYNCH: Unable to synchronize time: Timeout. when starting the ircd the time is right on the server I have no clues what it could be any help will be appreciated
Re: TIME SYNCH: Unable to synchronize time: Timeout.
Unless you are using some old version, UnrealIRCd also outputs the following directly the error you already pasted:
UnrealIRCd tries to check the time when it boots, it does this by contacting a number of time servers on the internet. Some firewalls prevent this (UDP port 123, in case you wonder).
If you are sure the time is right then this is a completely harmless error which you can safely ignore. You already know the time is correct after all
Code: Select all
TIME SYNCH: Unable to synchronize time: <error>
This means UnrealIRCd was unable to synchronize the IRCd clock to a known good time source.
As long as the server owner keeps the server clock synchronized through NTP, everything will be fine.
