>Description:
I noted my computer's time was off a couple of minutes. I 
found that nntp wasn't working. I had selected the second 
Washington state server, when using the sysinstall process
to set up time syncronization.

I learned that neither of the time servers shown for WA, 
clock.tricity.wsu.edu or ntp.tcp-udp.net would resolve in 
DNS. As my DSL line hits the internet in Seattle, I wanted 
a Washington time server; I edited ntpdate_flags in rc.conf 
to now read time.windows.com (also in WA), and now my 
computer time is correct. I promise to not tell Microsoft!
>How-To-Repeat:
Check the time server list against the targets.
