Hi,

How about some suggestions to debug the previously
mentioned problem? and the following?

I have two identical PR400FX intel MB's connected via ethernet
one DFly 1.0-RC2 , the other FreeBSD 5.1-p6. 

I have noticed that the date command on the dfly machine will give
a different time than the date command on another system (FreeBSD 5.1)
that is acting as a ntp server for it.
The time difference has been greater than 6 hours.
When the dfly system gets some activity on it, and perhaps gets
the appropriate thread scheduled, the ntpd program will
slew the clock back to being correct.

I have ran FreeBSD 4.10 on this hardware, over the weekend,
and do not believe that there is a hardware problem.

Cheers,

eric
