This is unrelated to your question, but: Please keep in mind that time.nist.gov is a stratum 1 server. You should only configure a machine to use time.nist.gov if that machine is going to be a stratum 2 server, and will provide NTP service to 100 clients or more. These guidelines are covered in the "Public NTP Time Servers Rules of Engagement": http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/servers.html (If you know all this and are setting up a stratum 2 server for your site, then I apologize; it's just that your message gave me the impression that you might be an end user who was being unintentionally antisocial by using a stratum 1 server solely for your own PC.) -- James Ralston, Information Technology Software Engineering Institute Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA, USA -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
