Did I type something wrong? Do you get any entries from xntpd in /var/log/messages? Is your Internet connection full-time or dial-out? Do you have a firewall with port 123 blocked? Does /etc/ntp.drift exist? Let us know so we can help you home in on your problem... --Dan ** The thing I like most about Windows 98 is... ** You can download FreeBSD with it!
