As I understand it, ntpdate is a one time command you have run from your /etc/rc.conf whereas timed or something else I can't remember runs continually and keeps your clock in check.

Did you ever discover what was causing the clock rate problem? -- Peter Leftwich President & Founder Video2Video Services Box 13692, La Jolla, CA, 92039 USA +1-413-403-9555 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
