Hi, I came back from my break to log in to my faverite FreeBSD 4.2 box, only to discover that the clock was many days out. I was not running NTP and the box had been idle with KDE and xglobe running as a normal user. I inspected the bios clock by doing a reboot and the bios proved to have the correct day and time. This i a little worrying as I was under the impression that they were one and the same. I tried running ntp but the drift got so large that it told me I had to adjust it manually (in just 12 hours!!). Can anybody help?
