Are you sure that your /etc/ntp.conf ist correct?


# cat /etc/ntp.conf

server time.fu-berlin.de iburst maxpoll 9
driftfile /var/db/ntp.drift
logfile /var/log/ntpd
#


# cat /var/db/ntp.drift
500.000
#


Are there any messages from ntpd in /var/log/messages?
What's the output from "ntpq -p"?

# ntpq -p
No association ID's returned
#

Make sure that you have these two lines in /etc/rc.conf:

ntpd_enable="YES"
ntpd_sync_on_start="YES"

how can I sync on start if I have to first dialup?
I have ntpd_flags="-g" - the same?

and how will the clock run when not connected to the internet?
it should at least be somehow in a sensible range

The second one is important -- it passes the -g option to
ntpd.  Without that option, ntpd refuses to perform an
initial correction if the clock offset is too large.

If there are still problems, please show us the contents
of your /etc/ntp.conf file.


now this is the machine with 2 minutes offset after 30hours uptime
(the other one has ntpd killed at signal 15 - some version problem I
think)
But 2 minutes is also too much

I can ping the server ok and internet was working at that time.
I have to redialup every 24h which normally works fine.
