More hair pulling... The normal /etc/init.d/ntpd contains: ntpd -s If I replace that with (thank you unionfs) rdate -s clock.psu.edu ntpd -S Then 'date' is updated properly. In the openntpd source (ntpd.c) by *not* calling void ntpd_settime(double d) Things work. I don't understand it, but just my observations.
