fact

Novell NetWare 6.0

Server Abends

Timesynce.nlm v6.01a September 17 2001

symptom

Abend: page fault processor execption in timesync.nlm

cause

If DNS (NAMED) is not running, TIMESYNC.NLM will abend if it cannot resolve the DNS name in the Timesources list.

Configured timesources are...

ntp2a.mcc.ac.uk:123, ntp2b.mcc.ac.uk:123, ntp2c.mcc.ac.uk:123, ntp2d.mcc.ac.uk:123

fix

If NAMED is running then timesync loads with no problem.  If both Secondary and Primary servers are not running, TIMESYNC is unable to resolve and the server abends.

A workaround would be to configure timesync with IP Address, instead of Name.
