Re: NTP not working on bootup

The past two days, my system clock has shown the time to be HOURS OFF after
booting. Going into YAST, Network Services, NTP Configuration, shows
that "Automatically start NTP Daemon during boot" is checked, as is
"Use Random servers from pool.ntp.org"

Going into advanced Configuration, the first choice is:
Undisciplined Local Clock(LOCAL) and then:
Server 0.pool.ntp.org
Server 1.pool.ntp.org
server 2.pool.ntp.org

I can sync with NTP manually, but how did my start NTP during boot
configuration get out of whack and what caused it to change?

Thanks,

Is the daemon really starting after all but no cron schedule is present
to get it to do anything? Check crontab and see if it's missing or
present in a way that might never work. Also instead of a random server,
try making it use a specific one, and see if that makes a difference.
