It appears that ntp is not > synching time. I see nothing unusual in /var/log/messages. NTP suffers from acute malignant optimism about how well the native computer can keep time. With a clock that is rotten enough, NTP will never manage to sync. I have had many motherboards that seem to lose or gain so fast that NTP cannot fix it. I usually resort to running ntpdate on cron every 5 minutes to get some vaguely accurate time :-(. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
