Ben,

Wow, I guess I don't feel quite so bad now! It is interesting that your
clock is running way too fast while mine is running slow.

It seems to be a software issue since as soon as I reboot, my time will
be back to normal (meaning the hardware clock is keeping good time). I
have since started using xntpd and it is keeping the time very well.
I'd rather not have to rely on a net connection but my DSL connection is
usually up all day every day for several months straight (seems to drop
about once every 3-4 months).

Thanks for the info!
Ron
