I had a problem with my clock drifting after I used hwclock to reset my time after I moved to a new time zone: the box had been on 15 minutes, I set it back an hour, and when I rebooted, the /etc/adjtime adjusted the clock by about four days. so I set it again. Now the durn thing thought it was drifting four days every 15 minutes. Turned my box on the next day and it was 1997.
Removing /etc/adjtime solved the problem; /etc/init.d/hwclock (or whereever it is) makes a new one. Rob -- I like the way ONLY their mouths move ... They look like DYING OYSTERS
