AFAIK, to keep good time on a linux machine inside the

you need to run "ntpdate" and not "ntpd".
No no no! That just makes things worse! It's the most
common reason for these "Time jumped forwards/backwards"
warnings.


!

Seriously ?


Definitely you should run ntpd -- but you need to make sure that it's configured correctly and working. Running "ntpdate" will cause time to jump.


I thought everyone knew that if you removed the 1.55v watch battery from the motherboard, you could put in a 1.6v battery and time will run faster. Then just use ntpdate - time will never jump forward, and dovecot won't crash.


:D
