I setup a departmental Jabber server yesterday using Openfire and I needed to make sure that the server kept it's date and time with the rest of the University. I found this quick guide to configuring CentOS 5.3 to synchronize with the University servers:
- Login as root
- Install the NTP service, if not already installed: "yum install ntp"
- Turn on the service: "/sbin/chkconfig ntpd"
- Point the NTP service at the University NTP servers: "/usr/sbin/ntpdate ntp.msu.edu"
- Start the NTP service: "/etc/init.d/ntpd start"
