I started using ntpd and ntpdate a few months ago to keep a number of
servers in sync with each other -- important for my backup tasks. It was
working so well, I paid no attention after awhile, but I noticed a few days
ago that the time change has created a problem for me. While ntpd is
working great on my server, with the time change giving it no problem, when
the client servers "sync" to mine, they come up an hour off. I'm sure
there is just some simple thing I have to do, but I just have not been able
to find it. What I notice is that my server gives the time in PDT, and the
client servers give it in PST. That's obviously what I need to fix, but
how the #$@#%@#$ do I fix it? I can't find anything in man pages, I've
searched online, blah, blah. Fact is, if I use ntpdate on the client
machines to sync directly with pool.ntp.org, the same problem occurs. Why
does it work on mine, but not on the others?

Sorry, I'm starting to ramble now. I'll stop.

Thanks,

Eric
