And see also http://www.ntp.org/ - Network Time > Protocol page, including lists of time servers I'm still working in 9.1. I used the wizard in Mandrake Control Centre to set up the ntpd daemon. I also installed the ntp rpm. I could run the ntpdate command with a local timeserver specified and the time would update. When I installed the ntpd daemon, I could no longer run the ntpdate command, because the daemon was running. So at this point I'm assuming that while I'm connected to the Internet with the modem, the ntpd daemon is checking the time. But..... I don't have man or info pages installed for ntp or the ntpd daemon. It would be nice to see if I can change the default settings on how often it checks for the time. Any ideas where the documentation may be found? Thanks, The Other
