There shouldn't be anything special with the mac as long as you put in the correct address in the date and time control panel. If you're having problems, try using the IP instead of the name for the ntp server. use the "Set Time Now" button on the mac to test whether it's working. --devin To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
