I don't think they are being "intentional" as it is in the drop down field of redhat-config-time as the "top" choice :) .. that is the one I would pick (and did) till I replaced my old ntp.conf from 7.x Tommy On Mon, 2003-01-06 at 22:42, James Ralston wrote: > On Mon, 6 Jan 2003, Justin Johnson w

To add multiple servers, do I add multiple "server " lines, or do I delimit them somehow, like with a comma or something? I synched my system clock to make sure. Will have to see on next reboot if this helps. I was changing settings to files in /etc/ntp, but never actually modified /etc/ntp.conf
