Don't you understand that NTP can not adjust my system clock and quits?


Yes I do.

I was explaining NTP it to Billie Walsh, who didn't seem
to understand that NTP is a method of keeping accurate time.

Ok.


I believe that NTP has an option for updating the time
in your CMOS clock.

Haven't seen it. Certainly, not in my config. The cmos clock is running fine; actually, I'm thinking of running a cron job to compare both cmos and system clocks and log it and sound a horn if they differ more than two seconds:

nimrodel:~ # hwclock --show ; date
Fri Dec 7 02:26:57 2007 -0.036220 seconds
Fri Dec 7 02:26:57 CET 2007
