Hi, I'm having a problem getting ntpdate to set the time. It seems to be getting the correct offset, but it's not setting the time. # date; ntpdate ncar.ucar.edu; date Thu Mar 8 14:06:55 CST 2001 8 Mar 14:06:56 ntpdate[6112]: adjust time server 192.52.106.6 offset -85899.283840 sec Thu Mar 8 14:06:56 CST 2001 The time zone is correct. The machine just thinks that it's in the future by a day. This is 4.2-RELEASE. I also set the machine with an "extreme" security level when I first installed FreeBSD. Could that be related to the problem? I remember reading somewhere about kern.securelevel affecting whether you could install a new kernel in multiuser mode or you have to reboot to single-user mode. My machine is set to kernel.securelevel: 2. Oddly, I did catch this in /var/log/messages: Mar 8 12:10:31 localhost /kernel: Time adjustment clamped to -1 second Is there a LINT config option to override this? Any suggestions are appreciated, thanks! -- Eugene Lee eugene@anime.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
