I noticed the clock on my main desktop was off by 28 minutes today and it increased to 45 minutes. I resync'd with ntpdate manually and it has drifted behind again about 7 minutes in the last few hours.
You do not mention the direction of the error which *may* be significant! If the clock is "slow", it suggests that something may be
eating your CPU while running at high priority! If the clock is "fast", nothing suggests itself to me!
I am using ntp version 4.2.4p7 which was installed with Slackware on Linux kernel 2.6.29.6. Until today the clock on this system has always matched the clocks of the other machines on my network. The system has been running for several years essentially unchanged. The only thing that changed (that I know of) is I added a new machine to my network recently. Its clock matches all the other clocks. I don't see any unusual messages from ntpd in my log or messages files on the system with the problem. One system has problems, all others appear to be fine and have synchronized clocks. I realize this isn't much information but I don't know what to look for. Can anyone tell me how to troubleshoot this? Thank you.
