It would simply not change the time (increment the seconds), no matter what I do. And this happens only after 1 day or so after rebooting that server, so it works ok in this time. No need to tell you that nothing works as it should (systat doesn't refresh, top doesn't refresh unless I press a key, etc.). Could it be a problem with the hardware? I have also tried modifying the kern.timecounter.method from 0 to 1,2, but w/o any success. Could you give me some ideas of what I could try to see what's wrong? :) Just curious, I'm pretty sure I'll have to replace that hardware anyways, so no big-of-a-deal, but the way this server acts is so funny, it's hard not to get interested! :) bogdan ---------------------------- iCom Media AG Kirchweg 36 Koln, 50858 Germany Phone: +49-(0)221-485-689-16 Fax : +49-(0)221-485-689-20 Mobile:+49-(0)173-906-46-01 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
