> I been watching my clock here for a while. On my old rig, ntp kept the clock set very, very well. This rig seems to have issues. I tried the stable version of ntp and it just seems to keep resetting the time but not adjusting the drift file at all. I even adjusted manually once and my entry was better than the one it made. |

Maybe the drift of your systemclock is to large. E.g. in (full) virtuell machines i experienced this problem. |

In such a case ntp only resets the clock regulary ("time reset +2.171765 s" in /var/log/ntp).[1] |

I have solved it with adjtimex as i speedup the systemclock a little bit (params: tick and freq). Since ntpd is working as expected again. |

[1] man 8 ntpd (just look for "maximum slew rate") |
