Thanks, I just installed this and it seems to be running ok after shutting the N900 down (reboot wouldn't start it), though I'm waiting for it to do it's first update. I've deliberately set the clock 5 minutes fast to see if it gets updated and nothing so far.

Is there a log file or anything that I can check to see if the changes I made to the time servers it uses are ok?

**UPDATE** don't worry, I figured out how to run it so I could see the results, stopped the daemon "openntpd stop", then ran it again as "ntpd -s -d"
