You should really use servers that are local to you, this minimizes network delays and gives you a better time. A good choice might be pool.XX.ntp.org where XX is your two-letter country code. Most people will not have to worry about the quality of the time service, it's adequate for almost all purposes. On some servers I've messed around with adjtimex just to see what can be done (and quite a bit can be done) but I've never really needed to do it. Here's my /etc/openntpd/ntpd.conf: 8<------------------------------------------- server 0.uk.pool.ntp.org server 1.uk.pool.ntp.org server 2.uk.pool.ntp.org server 3.uk.pool.ntp.org 8<------------------------------------------- Check out the ntp Website for more information. -- 73, Ged. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
