[AG-TECH] Audio and Video Syncronization

[Will, Rodger (R.)]

Thanks. However, I need point to an internal time source until our firewall is configured to pass ntp traffic. If all av machines are pointing to the same timeserver internally, will we be OK for internal grid sessions?

Yes. NTP on your audio and video machines should be pointing to 
ntp-1.accessgrid.org. Running the install script on the linux boxes 
should have set this up for you. Ours looks like this:

--begin /etc/ntp.conf
server	ntp-1.accessgrid.org

driftfile	/etc/ntp.drift
--end
