ntpd doesn't seem to set system time continuously. It only sets it when
first started, or when I restart it. I can also manually set the time using
ntpdate. However, the offset between the local server and the reference time
server keeps growing (almost 0.5 sec / hour):
# ntpq -p
remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset
jitter
==============================================================================
timeserver .LOCL. 1 u 47 64 377 0.150 -389.69
38.104
ntp.conf:
server timeserver
restrict 127.0.0.1
driftfile /var/lib/ntp/drift
Any idea how to force ntpd to keep local system time in sync?
