There are bugs with time keeping on amd64 chips, especially dual-core chips, which are fixed in newer kernels. Try 2.6.14 from unstable, I think it is fixed in 2.6.14. [My amd64 dual-core box has a offset of >500ppm due to these bugs; I can't upgrade to 2.6.14 due to sound breaking (mine is a desktop, not a server)] _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
