This FAQ entry is woefully out of date: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/troubleshoot.html#CALCRU-NEGATIVE The sysctl referenced doesn't even exist in newer versions of FreeBSD. I was going to write up a patch, when I found out that this entry: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/troubleshoot.html#LAPTOP-CLOCK-SKEW actually contains the fix that I've used whenever I get the calcru problem on 5.x. I would suggest eliminating the answer in the calcru entry and merging the two entries, as the solution is the same on 5.x However, I've never seen the problem on 4.x, so I don't know if the technique of setting kern.timecounter.method=1 workes or not. Comments? Suggestions? -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.comhelp
