We had an instance where the time was properly configured on a Linux device.  
Due to drive problem, time was off by approx. 8 hours.

And how do you determine if ntp is properly configured?  If it keeps the 
correct time, it's properly configured.

Hi,

You could start ntpd with the -g option, which will synch the time
regardless of the size of the time difference when ntpd is started.  Then,
if ntpd is configured correctly, it will stay in synch.
