Is xntpd-4.1.1 bug free or not?
If you're looking for a good clock-setting engine you can run ntpdate from
cron to set your clock. It is a one-shot deal, and can be run once per day
or whatever is comfortable for your situation. Example follows:
====
#!/bin/sh
#
# Is internet connection active?
result=$(cinternet -i ppp0 -s | grep connect)
#Test to see if the value is not NULL
if [ -n "$result" ]
then
#Yes... Update hdwe clock
ntpdate -b -u 132.246.168.148 #open server IP
#No... so just exit
else
exit 0
fi

Works like a champ. Thanks to a couple other suse-linux-e members who dropped
the ideas on this list. :-)
