Sorry to butt in here but I have ntpd trouble too. It doesn't seem to keep correct time. I've just followed the advice to rm /etc/adjtime and the drift file so haven't seen any results yet.. But shouldn't somekind of sync take place when ntpd is started? Further, I'm not sure I really understand what is supposed to be happening. I've recently switched form Fedora to Gentoo. In the old setup I just installed a ntpd package and added servers .. it all worked from there... never noticed the time being off at all. On gentoo I did pretty much the same thing but the time gets off after while. Today its off by about 8 minutes -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
