OK, it sees the time servers but doesn't seem to be able to lock on. I'd expect to see some syslog messages about lost ticks etc. Just as a sanity check, this wouldn't happen to be a vmware instance would it? In that case, ntp problems are a known fact.

as i can see it, my clients are syncing, after a long time the when i check the server the time are not syncronized, the two clients would be like 5 seconds delay while the other client is 30 mins late. On Tue, Apr 29, 2008 at 2:34 PM, Joe Sloan wrote:
