ntpd working?
I'm not sure if my ntpd is correctly setting (or slewing) my time. The log file reads:
Code:

Jun 12th was yesterday, it's been running overnight... hasn't logged anything in over 12 hours.
I'm invoking it with this command:
ntpd -A -c /etc/ntp.conf -l /var/log/ntp.log
And my conf file (/etc/ntp.conf) reads:
server time.nist.gov
server xxx.xxx.edu
driftfile /etc/ntp.drift
logfile /var/log/ntp.log
I edited out a non-public server address, yes I know this server is working.
Everything goes ok when I use ntdate to set the date, it query's the servers I have above (i pass them through the command line) and it tells me it's setting the clock back of forward X amount.
I'm confused :) maybe ntpd is working, maybe it isnt. I just thought it should write to the log when it adjusts my time letting me know it is working (maybe it doesnt).
Please clear me up :)
