Otherwise, xntpd has a drive doing it automatically?
> if yes, I would like to know how to configure. It would if the offset is less than CLOCK_WAYTOOBIG. There is, however, a compilation option where xntp will not give up on large offsets. Compile xntpd with -DBIGTIMESTEP and xntp will set the local clock to whatever time it finds via the NTP protocol. This may or may not be a good idea to do. Most offsets > CLOCK_WAYTOOBIG stem from misconfigured time zone information (leading to a wrong utc time in the kernel although date seems to show the correct time) and thus should be corrected before xntp is brought into operation. If you can trust your synchronisation network and the system configuration the BIGTIMESTEP option can be used to force xntp to set the time to network time even when the offsets exceeds CLOCK_WAYTOOBIG.
