Hello dear mentors,
Here is a new problem that has cropped up on the server I try to keep
under
control. I am receiving the root mail and things have been going along
pretty smoothly (well, most of the time). Suddenly I am getting this
message mailed to me every day:
15 Mar 14:37:55 ntpdate[535]: adjust time server 140.142.16.34 offset
-0.117209 sec
I know that we have a program loaded, ntpdate, that synchronizes our
server's clock to some other server clock out there in cyberspace. But,
I'm
not sure what this message is telling me. Do I need to make an
adjustment?
How would I go about that. I have no idea where the docs for ntpdate are.
Any suggestions are muchly appreciated!
-Ken Russell
