No that happens a lot on PCs. My windows one does it all the time. Open up the clock config thing (might need root password) and enable ntpd. Select a site from the choices, hit apply. Then every time you start your computer, it'll get the time automatically from the site you selected. It's also a handy way to see if your internet/DNS is working during startup. Of course, whether the clock site is in sync with the other clocks in your house is another story... -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Marty Landman Sent: Thursday, October 27, 2005 6:37 PM To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list Subject: sys time running fast I've got an old pc - p II 133 iirc - running RH9. The system clock runs fast, I'd estimate a few minutes per month. Funny because when I ran Windows on older boxes like that I think the clock used to run slow. Is this a known problem, or something I've configured wrong? Should I just keep adjusting with the date cmd or is there a fix for this kind of thing?
