ntpdate sets the system time after syncing with the time server. Now you have to update the hardware clock by doing a 'hwclock -w' before you do a reboot/halt. Have I gone wrong somewhere ? > idea is that you run ntpdate at boot (or on installation) to make the > time correct, then run ntpd continuously to keep it correct. Do we have ntpdate symlinked in all run-levels ? You mean to say that ntpdate should run before ntp ? Do ntpdate and ntp read the same config file ie. /etc/ntp.conf ? -- ragOO, VU2RGU http://gnuhead.net.dhis.org/ GPG: 1024D/F1624A6E Helping to keep the Air-Waves FREE Amateur Radio Helping to keep your Software FREE the GNU Project Helping to keep the W W W FREE Debian GNU/${kernel}
