I have a machine with a sempron64 and it seems that time is a tad bit

cron job to rdate time.nist.gov every 5 minutes. This is on OpenBSD 3.8
with the generic kernel and no other special modifications. Is there
anything I can possibly do to fix this little glitch (perhaps something
via sysctl?) or is it a problem in the code somewhere? Any help would be
greatly appreciated, thanks.

Actually I just started running NTPD and now the time is in sync with the
real time. Although I do notice that ntpd adjusts the time quite a bit via
the logs. However, that matters not to me as long as the server has fairly
accurate time which it does now. Thanks for all the prompt replies.
