Hello all,
 
This mailing list has been very informational for me so far.
 
I have a question about one shot time adjustment in ntpd (on Linux). We 
have seen that
at times a one shot time adjustment:
 
$ ntpd -q -g

Just hangs forever. Have any one else seen this ? What is that I am 
doing wrong ? How to
debug it. I checked my /etc/ntp.conf and every thing looks fine. Any ideas ?
 
For the same server $ntpdate <server> just works great.
 
Jarrar
