I use this command for checking if the clock is getting synced and accurate, enough. ntpdate -b -u -q pool.ntp.org If it happens to be way off, I remove the -q option and it will set the clock, rather abruptly tho. Someone posted that command for me AGES ago so figured I would pass it on. ;-) Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ... Not for what you understood or how you interpreted my words!
