This is NeXT-Time-of-Day-Dropping-Seconds... in view mode; [Up]
Date: Sun 22-Dec-1989 04:21:45 From: JOE@oregon.uoregon.edu (Joe St Sauver) Subject: NeXT Time of Day (Apparently) Dropping Seconds... I've been noticing that the time kept by my NeXT seems to be running slow... Is this phenomena unique to my machine, or are the rest of you also losing seconds on an ongoing basis? Have any of you worked out a fix for it (such as anchoring your machine to a known true-chimer via the network time protocol facilities?) or can the NeXT be electronically adjusted to run a little closer to "true" time? Thanks, Joe St Sauver (JOE@OREGON.UOREGON.EDU or JOE@OREGON)

I've noticed this too. It hasn't bothered me enough right now to go to the trouble of figuring out a soln.

Yes. Better losing than gaining though! Did NeXT ever fix 0.9's time adjustment bug? What's the word on NTP? Is there anything more recent than 3.4? -=EPS=-
