[Sussex] NTP Server....

[Richie Jarvis]

Hi All,

I recently reinstalled my MythTV server on ubuntu 6.10, and have been 
having real trouble with times.  What seems to be happening is that the 
clock is running ahead by about 30 minutes.  I've setup NTP (first with 
the deb pkg defaults, and recently using pool.ntp.org), and made sure 
that ntp-server is running.  I have verified that its running, and seems 
to be receiving times using ntp -p:

root at sam:/var/log/mythtv# ntpq -p
     remote           refid      st t when poll reach   delay   offset  
jitter
==============================================================================
 pool.ntp.org    83.170.73.8      3 u    7   64    1   24.319  -1090.6   
0.001
 LOCAL(0)        73.78.73.84      5 l    6   64    1    0.000    0.000   
0.001

This would seem to imply (to my untrained eyes) that its working - yet I 
keep having to reset the time, by shutting down the ntp-server, and 
running ntpdate pool.ntp.org

Has anyone else had similar NTP issues, and knows whats going on?

Thanks in advance,

Richie
