Hi pgeorges I've been irritated about the time drift on my Touch for a while ... during Easter I worked on in on-and-off.
First hurdle was to install putty on the Windows 7 laptop computer. Second was to go into the Touch Settings - Advanced - and enable Remote Login ... the screen provides you with the password. Then right-click on Command Prompt icon and choose Run as Administrator ... just to be sure I have all the rights. Then remote access to the Touch - execute: putty -ssh root@192.168.1.135 (insert your own IP address here) You're prompted for a password. Use the password provided when remote access was enabled. Linux command "ls" doesn't work ... use "ls -la" ... first step from root-user directory into the / directory "cd .." I see /usr/sbin/msntp is installed I execute /usr/sbin/msntp -r dk.pool.ntp.org (the "dk" is for Denmark, where I am located) # /usr/sbin/msntp -r dk.pool.ntp.org The time correction is -408.985 +/- 0.015+0.008 seconds Do you want to correct the time anyway? y # AS YOU CAN SEE ... msntp prompts for a reply. This could be your problem ... since you're executing from a cron job maybe msntp never receives a "yes" from you? /Claus ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cfuttrup's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=32784 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98322 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
