Hi David,
Thank you for your reply.

I have replaced ntpd, ntpdate, ntpq, and tickadj on my client with a
build I just performed of ntp-dev-4.2.7p357. I configured this build
with the following options:
--enable-accurate-adjtime
--enable-simulator
--enable-step-slew
--enable-ntpdate-step
--enable-hourly-todr-sync
I hope these seem reasonable.
I'm hoping to have a look at the simulator and perhaps give that a whirl.
I couldn't help notice that this build produced an ntpdate program; I
thought ntpdate was deprecated for "ntpd -q"?
Best regards,
Trevor
Trevor, I'm afraid I have very little knowledge of UNIX-like OSes, and I
don't use ntpdate at all - I've never needed it except as a diagnostic
tool against remote servers. Equally, I can't comment on the build
options, but I'm sure others will.
Bill's (unruh) point about the multiple time resets is pertinent - they
simply shouldn't be happening. It suggests that something else might be
trying to set the time (were you running Windows).
