Ah heck, Grumpy and PeeCee are synced off an Irix machine which is running whatever xntpd was shipped on the SGI Freeware 2.0 CDROM. Its not logging so I don't have record of what it saw. Guess I should get a modern copy of xntpd on that machine so I'll be ready for the next leap second. :-) If I was thinking, should have left this system dialed in to see what happened. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
