There is a cron that syncs both clocks from pool.ntp.org every midnight.
But there is always a gap of several minutes between hardware clock and
system clock.
Server is always on.
How can I fix this issue?
I think, you should
(a) stop the cron job
(b) install ntpd to run continuously in the background
(c) trust the system time, ignore the hardware clock
(d) let hwclock set the hardware clock upon system shutdown
That way, all should be well.

Thanks for your answer
This is a standard practice? Sounds a little tricky ... Why the system
time goes crazy? (hw clock is ok)
