How soon after you start ntpd do you try checking time? I've found that synchronization with the servers in ntp.conf takes quite a bit of time. Start up the daemon, leave it alone for at least 15 minutes (more is better) and then check time. In case it helps, here is my /etc/ntp.conf file: driftfile /etc/ntp.drift disable auth monitor server tick.uh.edu prefer server tick.greyware.com Oscar At 05:32 PM 7/24/2002 -0400, Brian McCann, you wrote: >Ok...I've tried reading the NTPD pages....but they are a bit cryptic for >me.
