I tried running ntpd on a system I have with a terrible clock, and I still found that the time was off by up to six minutes in some instances. I was thinking I'd get better results by running ntpdate as a cron job. What's the secret? I've been scouring man pages and docs for days now to no avail. And how often does this ntp.conf actually update the time? << Chip Morton >> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
