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).
