</div></div>That file hasn't been updated for a while ?<br></blockquote></div><br>That would be correct for the Apple ntpd/pacemaker setup. It's created once and not updated thereafter, which is the root of the usual problem --- real ntpd will adjust the drift when it changes, Apple's does not, and new machines will usually see changes in their clock drift as they settle in. And the fix is to remove the out of date one, run Apple ntpd or full ntpd without pacemaker running to let it create a more up to date one, and then restart pacemaker, as I described originally.<br><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div>brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates</div><div><a href="mailto:allbery.b@gmail.com" target="_blank">allbery.b@gmail.com</a> <a href="mailto:ballbery@sinenomine.net" target="_blank">ballbery@sinenomine.net</a></div><div>unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad <a href="http://sinenomine.net" target="_blank">http://sinenomine.net</a></div></div></div>
