[From previous mail, the file might not be readable.] ntpd probably reads the leap file while still root, before changing user/group. You can test that by restarting ntpd and then checking the tai_offset. You may have to reboot the system. If you comment out the leap file, reboot, then the tai_offset should be 0. If you reactivate the leap file and restart ntpd, then the tai_offset should be correct. -- These are my opinions. I hate spam. _______________________________________________ pool mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/pool
