Could I make a suggestion that you try the following servers in your ntp configuration, you can use yast to do the configuration and test of the server: 0.pool.ntp.org 1.pool.ntp.org 2.pool.net.org I suggest those files because there is a protocol among the different strata time server. Many of them request that you inform them of your use. You can read more about the pool.ntp.org at http://www.pool.ntp.org/ -- Joseph Loo [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
