Sivakumar, The NTP process does not have a clock. There is only one system clock.
Think of the system clock as Big Ben. Once in a while the NTP daemon puts a few farthings on the pendulum or takes a few off.

Hi, Is it possible to make the NTP clock, timer run by the NTPD process and the system clock can be independent of each other. Can the NTP timer alone be set by the NTPD process without disturbing the system clock.? I'm little confused with the behavior of the system clock and the reference time. Whenever I change the system time by +/- by 10 min, the reference time also gets updated. Is this reference time refers the timer run by the NTPD process? The clock /timer run by the NTPD process be independent to this alone. Any info on this issue is highly appreciable.
