Is anyone using this or a better way to keep server clocks in sync? It doesn't seem to do anything, 4 servers all running xntpd with a /etc/ntp.conf (as per the man pages) as follows: server 128.173.14.71 driftfile /etc/ntp.drift and there is a writable driftfile that never gets written to. According to the complete FreeBSD book, the driftfile's presence in the conf file tells xntpd to get the time from the server, and it's absence tells it to get the time from listening to ntp broadcasts.
