1 Time(s): Clock: inserting leap second 23:59:60 UTC

RHEL 5.2 system running ntpq [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Jan 17 18:14:14 UTC 2008 (1) which is the default for that distribution. Grepping around in the logs it appears that most or all of my RHEL systems did it.

I got this, too, on at least one system:

Jun 30 19:34:53 ozz-1300 ntpd[2659]: time reset +1.000360 s


Thing is, IERS, who I understand is in charge of these things, says: "There will NOT be a leap second introduced in UTC on 30 June 2008." (http://maia.usno.navy.mil/)

So was that bogus?  A bug in RH's NTP code?  A problem with NTP itself?

Operator error? :-)
