> Is that ntp or xntp? Jeff (and all): It's "ntp" - I looked at 'xntp' once, had problems with undefined kernel values, and bagged it. Maybe someday I'll get a reason to go back and do another pass at xntp... Anyhow, there's still a bug left in there someplace - on occasion, somebody "forgets" and no adjtime() are done - I haven't traced out whether ntp stops DOING it or if the kernel gets anti-social. I usually notice it when the 'offset' gets up to 500ms or so, and a 'kill -9 /etc/ntpd' and restarting it fixes it. This behavior has been there for quite some time - I just haven't had the motivation to chase it down yet... /Valdis
