Ie, the «HWCLOCK="-u"» line has dissapeared - in two different computers running 12.3, at least.
The variable is important, it is sourced in "/etc/init.d/ntp" (script which still exists).
The the "/etc/init.d/ntp" script is buggy. It has to use /etc/adjtime. Werner -- "Having a smoking section in a restaurant is like having a peeing section in a swimming pool." -- Edward Burr
