Hi, I've had time problems too. The clock did not go backwards, but forwards for some time sime, and then jumped back to a certain date. Like Sun Jan 25 00:55:12 UTC 2009 ... Sun Jan 25 01:08:35 UTC 2009 Sun Jan 25 00:55:12 UTC 2009 Sun Jan 25 00:55:13 UTC 2009 ... It took me quite some time to find a solution that helped for me: - activate the independent_wallclock in domO by 'sysctl xen.independent_wallclock=1' - edit and configure '/etc/ntpd.conf' in domU - edit '/etc/rc.conf' and add the following lines # NTP stuff ntpdate_enable="YES" ntpdate_flags="-b <YOUR_NTP_SERVER>" ntpd_enable="YES" - reboot domU If you try it on your problem, could you please give me some feedback if it worked? -- Mr. Olli Am Freitag, den 30.01.2009, 03:53 +0100 schrieb Julian Stecklina: > Hello, > > on my FreeBSD 8-CURRENT Xen DomU printing `date' each second gives me > this: > > Sun Jan 25 00:55:12 UTC 2009 > Sun Jan 25 00:55:13 UTC 2009 > Sun Jan 25 00:55:14 UTC 2009 > Sun Jan 25 00:49:50 UTC 2009 > Sun Jan 25 00:49:51 UTC 2009 > Sun Jan 25 00:49:52 UTC 2009 > Sun Jan 25 00:49:53 UTC 2009 > Sun Jan 25 00:49:55 UTC 2009 > Sun Jan 25 00:49:56 UTC 2009 > Sun Jan 25 00:49:57 UTC 2009 > Sun Jan 25 00:49:58 UTC 2009 > Sun Jan 25 00:49:59 UTC 2009 > Sun Jan 25 00:50:00 UTC 2009 > Sun Jan 25 00:50:01 UTC 2009 > Sun Jan 25 00:50:02 UTC 2009 > ... 8 mins pass ... > Sun Jan 25 00:58:25 UTC 2009 > Sun Jan 25 00:58:26 UTC 2009 > Sun Jan 25 00:58:27 UTC 2009 > Sun Jan 25 00:49:49 UTC 2009 > Sun Jan 25 00:49:50 UTC 2009 > > It should increase every second, shouldn't it? ;) > > MfG,
