Forum clock runs late

[Boulder]

It seems that the forum clock is running late..I just posted and the timestamp shows 8:47PM but the clock is 9:21PM here.

We're a bit slow here in Sweden ;).. Server clock updated.

sync to NNTP?

[Swede]

It's always been synched, once a day. All of a sudden it's waaay off so now it's synching every hour, don't know why it's so slow but...

[Shinigami-Sama]

I was just ganna say CMOS battery
if that doesn't fix it the system timer is *******, that happened to me before...

doom9 is behind the times once again! :) (not figuratively though, in that we're very progressive).

I don't know how other NTP clients work, but with the Windows one if the clock goes too far off it goes into some error state and won't synchronise with the servers. I don't know how far off it has to be for this to happen.

[Swede]

It's simpler than that, it was just my bad memory... I updated and restarted the server some days ago and forgot that I'd just tested the ntpdaemon, not added it to the startup (which I've now done).

So all the blame on me this time. ;)
