Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Actually, that's...
...apt-get install ntp.

ntpdate only runs once (usually at boot, to sync the clock).

...OK, raise your hands (and back away from the keyboard slowly) if you thought I was going to bait Peter with an "rpm -Uvh foo" ;-)

What part of "gestalt" don't you understand?

rpm -Uvh [link|http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/redhat-7.2-en/os/i386/RedHat/RPMS/ntp-4.1.0-4.i386.rpm|http://www.mirror.a...0-4.i386.rpm]

and you better pray you got the [link|http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/redhat-7.2-en/os/i386/RedHat/RPMS/ntp-4.1.0-4.i386.rpm%5Bpeek%5D|deps] installed :)

(BTW, the UK Mirror Service absolutely rocks and it's quick, even for you colonials)

I've got ntpdate hooked up on an hourly cron job. Simpler than futzing around with a full ntp server.

New Re: *Please* make those into links?
It's not a link.

That's the command line you could use to download and install the RPM file from that particular server.

New As much as I hate to say it, one point to Microsoft:
Infernal Exploiter breaks the line on one of the many hyphens in it.

(Too bad not all over-long lines people post here are guaranteed to have hyphens in tem.)
