Hello, I have several computers running ntpd, but on one computer it does not work. At first, that computer has 4 ntpd processes in stead of 1:
(output ps aux) USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND root 21748 0.0 38.9 3972 3964 ? SL Jan03 0:26 /usr/sbin/ntpd root 21749 0.0 38.9 3972 3964 ? SL Jan03 0:03 /usr/sbin/ntpd root 21750 0.0 38.9 3972 3964 ? SL Jan03 0:27 /usr/sbin/ntpd root 21751 0.0 1.2 4096 124 ? SL Jan03 0:00 /usr/sbin/ntpd but the worst is that the time is not correctly: 45 minutes ahead of the correct time. The timezone is set correctley. My /etc/ntp.conf: # /etc/ntp.conf, configuration for xntpd # ntpd will use syslog() if logfile is not defined #logfile /var/log/ntpd driftfile /var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift statsdir /var/log/ntpstats/ statistics loopstats peerstats clockstats filegen loopstats file loopstats type day enable filegen peerstats file peerstats type day enable filegen clockstats file clockstats type day enable server ntp.chello.nl I use this timeserver for different computers, so I guess their time is correct ;-). So, why does it not want to set the correct time? It eats memory. Thanks in advance, Sebastiaan -- NT is the OS of the future. The main engine is the 16-bit Subsystem (also called MS-DOS Subsystem). Above that, there is the windoze 95/98 16-bit Subsystem. Anyone can see that 16+16=32, so windoze NT is a *real* 32-bit system.
