Hey, rjc Now I'm having the same problem as you did. Like: root@beaglebone:~# ntpdate pool.ntp.org Error resolving pool.ntp.org: Name or service not known (-2) 24 Apr 04:50:13 ntpdate[1143]: Can't find host pool.ntp.org: Name or service not known (-2) 24 Apr 04:50:13 ntpdate[1143]: no servers can be used, exiting Can you tell me how exactly you figure your problem before? That will help me a lot. Thanks, Jane
