Huh? Perhaps only when adjkerntz is running? It is never running on ``serious'' machines. ;-) Btw., there have been many problem reports about bogus adjkerntz activities here in Germany yesterday. (We had a DST switchover.) I can't tell you what exactly it has been (i don't use it myself, all my CMOS clocks run UTC), but the pattern seems to be consistent among the German users. Ah, minute... that's from the de-freebsd lists: Mar 31 04:01:00 zit1 adjkerntz[23396]: Nonexistent local time -- will retry afte r 1800 secs Mar 31 04:31:00 zit1 adjkerntz[23396]: Nonexistent local time -- will retry afte r 1800 secs Mar 31 04:31:00 zit1 adjkerntz[23454]: Nonexistent local time -- will retry afte r 1800 secs Mar 31 05:01:00 zit1 adjkerntz[23396]: Nonexistent (final) local time -- will re try after 1800 secs Mar 31 05:01:00 zit1 adjkerntz[23454]: Nonexistent (final) local time -- will re try after 1800 secs Mar 31 05:31:00 zit1 adjkerntz[23396]: Nonexistent (final) local time -- will re try after 1800 secs Mar 31 05:31:00 zit1 adjkerntz[23454]: Nonexistent (final) local time -- will re try after 1800 secs -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
