My firewall machine also functions as my local NTP server and updates from the public NTP servers. Recently, however, it's begun to lose synchronization quite frequently. From my logcheck report: May 22 08:03:47 Bigbrother ntpd[1029]: time reset -0.173946 s May 22 08:03:47 Bigbrother ntpd[1029]: synchronisation lost May 22 08:19:07 Bigbrother ntpd[1029]: time reset 0.200497 s May 22 08:19:07 Bigbrother ntpd[1029]: synchronisation lost May 22 08:28:54 Bigbrother ntpd[1029]: synchronisation lost May 22 08:34:19 Bigbrother ntpd[1029]: synchronisation lost May 22 08:35:22 Bigbrother ntpd[1029]: time reset -0.326498 s May 22 08:35:22 Bigbrother ntpd[1029]: synchronisation lost May 22 08:48:24 Bigbrother ntpd[1029]: synchronisation lost May 22 08:50:31 Bigbrother ntpd[1029]: synchronisation lost May 22 08:56:56 Bigbrother ntpd[1029]: synchronisation lost May 22 08:59:12 Bigbrother ntpd[1029]: synchronisation lost Is this anything to really be concerned about? I've always lost synchronization, but it was on the order of 3 - 4 times a day, not 10 times in 55 minutes.
