It has been doing that quite well, but /var/log/messages has lots of lines like "Jan 4 10:46:25 seraglio xntpd[6454] Previous time adjustment didn't complete" xntpd is started from rc with no switches, and the contents of /etc/ntp.conf are server ntp.ml.csiro.au prefer server ntp.cs.mu.oz.au server krefti.cc.uq.oz.au driftfile /etc/ntp.drift Have I done something wrong or is this the normal behavior?
