I got notified that the time is in future on the list server.
Current real time:
date -u
Thu May 19 10:48:19 UTC 2011
lists.osgeo.org:
root@peer1_1:neteler # date -u
Fri May 20 07:42:26 UTC 2011
I have restarted ntpd but I am not sure that this helps.

For the record: I tried the same but did "restart" of the daemon
which didn't have any effect. Stop/starts seems to be better,
Yup. BTW, the kernel-PLL appears to be totally out of tune. I've
already tried to apply a few countermeasures (regarding the NTP drift
file and '/etc/adjtime'), but it might take a few days until it's back
into reasonable shape.

Martin.

please double check `ntpq -p` as well after a while and ensure it
is talking to the time servers you think it is.
(at least Ubuntu 10.04 LTS pushed in a ntp change in the last
versions that silently ignores servers in ntp.conf if the DHCP
host has supplied (or begins to supply) some.. argh!)

In general I'd welcome if distributions honour the DHCP "ntp-servers"
option, as far as I can tell, very, very few are doing this, if any.
The state on 'osgeo1' is steadily getting better, still not synced to
any of the NTP servers, but the growth of the offset has slowed down
significantly.
Cheers,
Martin.
