That takes time. The maximum clock skew rate is 5 ms per second. Let's look at the numbers above. From 17:58:17 to 18:02:02, 225 seconds have passed. The clock can be adjusted by 1.125 seconds in that time. Which is the difference in the logged adjustment values. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber na...@mips.inka.de
