OK, I'm getting really frustrated. Reading the man for xntpd, I'm left with the impression that xntpd goes out and gets the time sync every now and then. However, on my machine, it keeps losing time. After a reboot, the time is fixed, but then slowly moves ahead of the correct time. Currently it is 1hr 14minutes ahead and I just rebooted it last night. ps -ax displays: 257 ?? S<s 0:21.19 xntpd -b -c /etc/ntp.conf -f /etc/ntp.drift Entry in rc.conf: xntpd -b -c /etc/ntp.conf -f /etc/ntp.drift Entry ntp.conf: server tick.uh.edu Do I need to set up a cron job for this? Did I type something wrong? ********************************************** The box said "requires Win95 or better"...
