If you're not using NTP or some other time setting method, then it's just whatever you set your time to. It is possible for a DHCP server to point to an NTP server, but I don't know if openSUSE responds to that. It does, the server is added dynamically.
I suspected as much, but never verified. I suppose if a server is specified the DHCP provided server is not used.
It's also possible to use NTP multicast but, again, I don't know if openSUSE can use it. NTP can use it, no probs.
Again, I suspected as such but have not seen any info about this. There are many things that may be available in openSUSE, but are apparently not documented. One thing Bob could do is fire up Wireshark and filter on NTP to see what's happening. I normally configure my computers to use either my firewall/router or a public server. There are plenty of those around. Incidentally, the University of Toronto has a pair of NTP servers tick.utoronto.ca and tock.utoronto.ca. ;-) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
