The server you're trying to synchronize to doesn't have the correct time. This is "obvious" from two pieces of information. First, the leap bits both being set to '11' is an alarm condition. Also, the fact that the reference time is sometime back in February should be a hint, too. louie > On a related matter, I have a new problem with ntpdate which started on > shifting from 2.2.8 to 3.1-RELEASE -> 3.1-Stable.
