Thanks Brian for your input on this matter. Sure need something right
now and your input surely looks helpful.
Now - what I have in place right now shows some improvement but I wonder
if it is right yet. Here is what ntpq -p gives me:

How does this look? I think it actually is working now?? Anyone, please
let me know.
And Brian... I will try the list of servers that you provided. Thanks very
much for that input..

Well I finally am moving away from netdate and have ntpd installed and
running.
I brought it up using ntpd -g, and hope that is ok.
Also I have no idea that it is doing anthing? How do I know that it is
running.
The drift file has only one entry in it, and that is all zeros..
Is there some way that I can watch what is happening like the way I watch
log files using 'tail -f messages' ??
I have all the logfile stuff turned on so I can read any and all stuff that
is happening and yet while that says a few things I at this point don't
know that it is doing anything with the system time.
I am running linux (slackware 10.2)..
Maybe you can try it with "ntpq -p" which shows you all configured time
references (the "server" or "peer" lines in /etc/ntp.conf). If you want,
you can run it periodically : "watch -n 1 ntpq -p"
OK on the 'watch' line. Here is what that gives me"
