I am in the GMT +0300 TZ somewhere in Africa, but in all this time I don't seem to be able to identify a time server. I would like to run ntpd, using some atomic time server for sync. I have read all those literature out there, the only problem is identifying two or three suitable servers to sync against! Thanks for any clues. -Wash -- Odhiambo Washington "The box said 'Requires Wananchi Online Ltd. www.wananchi.com Windows 95, NT, or better,' Tel: +254 2 313985-9 +254 2 313922 so I installed FreeBSD."
