Thanks to those who helped with my clock situation. I am using ntpdate as a cron
to update the time every hour. Now it seems that my clock is off by at least -.014
seconds every hour. Is this normal? Why is off so much in one hour?

Here is the average output form cron:
22 Jan 07:00:00 ntpdate[1891]: ntpdate 4.0.99b Mon Jan 15 19:24:58 GMT 2001 (1)
22 Jan 07:00:00 ntpdate[1891]: adjust time server 17.254.0.27 offset -0.148541 sec

TIA
