Greetings.
Once again, I present with a tale of the weird: My secondary
nameserver has always had the wrong time, but since it does
nothing but DNS, I've never bothered to correct it: until yesterday.
Like all of our machines, it runs ntpdate -sb on bootup and
at midnight every day. Nevertheless, heres ns2's "date":
jb214@ns2$ date
Sat Aug 2 08:57:13 CDT 1930
And here are the relevent log entries:
Aug 1 19:06:58 ns2 ntpdate[200]: step time server 192.52.106.6 offset 0.001704
Aug 1 19:09:25 ns2 named[85]: secondary zone "mfn.org" time warp
Aug 1 19:47:57 ns2 named[85]: secondary zone "mfn.org" time warp
Aug 1 20:04:27 ns2 named[85]: secondary zone "mfn.org" time warp
Aug 1 20:37:54 ns2 named[85]: secondary zone "mfn.org" time warp
Since NS2 is "headless" and I'll leave this as is if I can't resolve
it *easily*, but I'm puzzled. Why won't ntpdate correct the date? Also,
the time is off, even though I have the time zone set and the daemon
running:
jb214@ns2$ ps -wax
PID TT STAT TIME COMMAND
0 ?? DLs 0:00.57 (swapper)
1 ?? IWs 0:00.22 /sbin/init --
2 ?? DL 0:00.79 (pagedaemon)
3 ?? DL 0:01.87 (vmdaemon)
4 ?? DL 0:14.74 (update)
23 ?? IWs 0:00.06 adjkerntz -i
80 ?? Ss 0:04.79
Go figure? While I'm at it, what does the "time warp" message
actually *mean*? I can *see* that the time is wrong, but how
is it that named knows something is wrong? And precisely
what is it that named is trying to tell me?
TIA,
