Hello,
I guess there is something simple that is wrong but my server is not 
really keeping the correct time. I have these options in /etc/rc.conf
ntpd_enable="YES"
ntpd_flags="-g -c /etc/ntp.conf -p /var/run/ntpd.pid -f /var/db/ntp.drift"
and here's the details of /etc/ntp.conf file:
server 0.pl.pool.ntp.org
server 1.pl.pool.ntp.org
server 2.pl.pool.ntp.org
server 3.pl.pool.ntp.org
driftfile /var/db/ntp.drift
restrict default nopeer nomodify
I used to have server 0.europe.pool.ntp.org in the ntp.conf file but 
today changed all entries to *.pl.pool.*
At the moment my clock is about 3 minutes behind time. It has been 
running for a year and I do not have ntpdate enabled so I guess 
subsequent reboots did not correct the drifting problem.
Is there anything obvious I am missing here? Any advice would be greatly 
appreciated!
Thank you all very much!
