I have. I started out with the same servers on my old rig and changed |
27 |
them to see if it would matter a week or so ago. I use this command to |
28 |
get the best servers: |
29 |
|
30 |
netselect -s 3 pool.ntp.org |
31 |
|
32 |
That generally works pretty well. I try to update them every once in a |
33 |
while. I'm thinking about removing the router and hooking directly to |
34 |
my DSL modem. That's the only thing that has changed from the old rig |
35 |
to the new rig. This is how close the old rig is and it is hooked to |
36 |
the router too: |
37 |
|
38 |
root@smoker / # ntpdate -b -u -q pool.ntp.org |
39 |
server 72.26.125.125, stratum 2, offset -0.000087, delay 0.09828 |
40 |
server 64.34.218.21, stratum 2, offset -0.002207, delay 0.09799 |
41 |
server 149.20.68.17, stratum 2, offset 0.009124, delay 0.13466 |
42 |
6 Jan 23:23:31 ntpdate[15816]: step time server 64.34.218.21 offset |
43 |
-0.002207 sec |
44 |
root@smoker / # |
45 |
|
46 |
According to the log, it synced a hour or so ago and the previous sync |
47 |
was about 7 hours before that. Now why can't my new rig do that? |
