-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 At this point I can only speculate that ntpd somehow isn't adjusting the clock even though it says it is. Keep in mind that this is Open NTPD, not the reference ntp implementation. And the -s (set immediately on startup) option only works if the clock is off by more than 180 seconds.

What ends up happening is that my clock just gets further and further behind to the point where my time ends up being *ahead* by about 5 minutes or so.
