My clock on my bsd box currently 19 minutes ahead of the real world. I have it set to query my w2k box as the time server. I do have the ntpd running, So I am not sure how to adjust I tried this=20 milter# ntpdate -q 192.168.1.3 Looking for host 192.168.1.3 and service ntp host found : fci2003.fci server 192.168.1.3, stratum 2, offset -1120.152027, delay 0.03365 13 Jul 14:30:19 ntpdate[79951]: step time server 192.168.1.3 offset -1120.152027 sec But the longer the machine stays up (142 days ) the more time the clock loses,=20 Aside from rebooting , is there any way to fix this?
