Perhaps this was your problem. Maybe, but I wouldn't think the time could get out of sync that fast. I did start out getting the correct time with ntpdate, and within a few hours my clock was about seven minutes slow. I did notice that Dan Langille's ntp.conf had multiple server lines in it, so I'm trying that in my file as well to see if it helps. By the way, how often does ntpd update the time by default? << Chip Morton >> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
