I have two ubuntu 18.04 machines with ntpd ntpsec-1.1.0+419 installed. The ubuntu-1 has access to public internet and it synchronizes time with ntp pools provided by ubuntu like 0.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org. The ubuntu-2 does not have access to the public internet and it synchronizes time with ubuntu-1. There is a symmetric key created that is used for NTP authentication between ubuntu-1 and ubuntu-2.
Everything is working fine, time is synchronizing and NTP messages are authenticated.
But when I check associations on ubuntu-2 I see auth: bad:
# ntpq -c as ind assid status conf reach auth condition last_event cnt =========================================================== 1 19530 d61a yes yes bad sys.peer sys_peer 1 What does the 'bad' exactly mean in this printout? And what I can do to see 'ok' instead of 'bad'?
ntp.conf on ubuntu-1 (shortened with auth related conf only):
keys /etc/ntp.keys trustedkey 1 ntp.conf on ubuntu-2 (shortened with auth related conf only):
keys /etc/ntp.keys trustedkey 1 server ubuntu-1 key 1 ntp.keyes are same on both nodes:
