Thanks! No real ideas, but this sort of thing seems to hapen to one of my (Alpha) boxes running 4.6-STABLE as well, so you are ot alone ... my box definately has wilder time slews than your example though: Aug 28 01:17:59 erwin ntpd[85]: time reset -10.533113 s Aug 28 01:22:28 erwin ntpd[85]: time reset -0.151435 s Aug 28 01:49:29 erwin ntpd[85]: time reset -0.482979 s Aug 28 02:14:28 erwin ntpd[85]: time reset 0.665826 s Aug 28 04:16:56 erwin ntpd[85]: time reset -0.422747 s Aug 28 04:36:22 erwin ntpd[85]: time reset 0.260661 s Aug 28 04:48:26 erwin ntpd[85]: time reset 0.162487 s Aug 28 22:58:42 erwin ntpd[85]: time reset -5.481285 s To tell the truth, as long as most of the action is within 10 seconds - I'm not concerned. cheers, Rob To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
