Hello. What if you use the apple timeserver on your linux machines, I think that would be the easiest for you to do. hth Tommy Den 24. apr. 2011 kl. 00.24 skrev Cheryl Homiak: > Hi. > > I'm running the latest update of Snow Leopard on an Intel Mac Mini bought at the beginning of 2008. The clock is supposedly being synchronized with an Apple timeserver acording to date and time in System Preferences. However, it is at least 30 seconds off from my two linux machines which are being set once an hour with the nist.gov servers. This is really bothering me because I have chimes and announcements set to go off at different times and the other computers are done or almost done by the time my Mac starts. I'm sure the linux machines are more accurate because they are also in sync with my atomic clock. Is there something I can do to manually set this clock to the right time, even if I have to keep doing it periodically?Whatever is being done automatically doesn't seem to be working. > > -- > Cheryl > > May the words of my mouth > and the meditation of my heart > be acceptable to You, Lord, > my rock and my Redeemer. > (Psalm 19:14 HCSB) > > > > > _______________________________________________ > X4U mailing list > X4U at listserver.themacintoshguy.com > http://listserver.themacintoshguy.com/mailman/listinfo/x4u > > Seven Cent Deals - Great legacy stuff Great Legacy Price > http://www.drbott.com/prod/db.lasso?cat=Seven+Cent+Deal > Best regards Tommy Bollman -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mollison's Bureaucracy Hypothesis: If an idea can survive a bureaucratic review and be implemented it wasn't worth doing.
