didn't notice when, but yes it mucked up my times...........
I'm quite confused by all this. The time daemon I use (ntpd) has some built in protection for such 'accidents'. Namely, it won't reset the time if it's going to be a big jump, whatever big is defined as. What time daemon was being used by the systems involved? I wasn't affected by this event, but then I'm not using bigben, but my ntp.conf is tictoc.clix.net.nz server paradise.net.nz server actrix.gen.nz server truechimer3.waikato.ac.nz server truechimer.waikato.ac.nz -- Dan Langille The FreeBSD Diary - http://freebsddiary.org/ - practical examples - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
