Hi folks,
Having an issue with ntpd not keeping the correct
time.
I first ran ntpdate from /etc/rc.d/ntpdate and that
set the date and time.
Then I ran /etc/rc.d/ntpd and that started up fine.
The followind day I find that the system still thinks
it is the previous day and such.
I thought the purpose of ntp was to keep the time
correct, why would it be off?
Here is my ntp.conf.
logconfig =syncstatus +sysevents
logfile /var/log/ntp.log
server time-a.nist.gov prefer iburst
server utcnist.colorado.edu iburst
server lerc-dns.lerc.nasa.gov iburst
driftfile /var/db/ntp.drift
