[EMAIL PROTECTED], The good thing about faqs is they are quick and dirty; the bad thing is they are sometimes wrong. Starting ntpd for the first time and without a frequency file, ntpd computes the frequency directly and sets it within 1 PPM in fifteen minutes. Indeed, there will be small wiggles of a milliscond or two as the daemon shaves off the residuals in a couple of hours, but it isn't clear if you consider the residuals as errors.
