Best way to explain the difference is to use a real spring driven clock as an example. ntpdate is like seeing the hands to the correct time while the normal mode (running ntpd) is like adjusting the fast/slow lever such that you never have to set the hands. Also ask some one to compute a time interval on a spring driven clock, while they are doing it adjust the hands on the clock several times. -- Chris Albertson Redondo Beach, California _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
