Ken, what I do is use ntpdate to set time, and fire it off by cron...
40 0,4,8,12,16,20 * * * /usr/sbin/ntpdate 65.68.232.27 (my time server)
also tried netdate in place of ntpdate, though not on the ACID distro.

I would like to sync the clock of my node every once in a while (like once a week)
To do this I am using:
ntpd -q
I found that this kills one of my fobs (stops updating)
So - I thought that I would just stop asterisk, do the time sync and start Asterisk again.
I run this script from crontab
/usr/local/bin/astdn.sh
/usr/sbin/ntpd -q
/usr/local/bin/astup.sh
But when it gets to line 6 of astdn.sh (service asterisk stop) it throws an error and does not really stop Asterisk. So it kills the fob.
I am thinking this error has something to with the environment that crontab runs things in . how to fix?
Tnx
Ken
