Folks,
consider using xntpd to sync time on your Unix boxes and these problems
will disappear. xntpd comes with most linux distributions but may not
be installed by default. Look for a package called xntp, ntp or similar.
If you can't find it on your distribution CDs you can try for example
http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/ to locate RPMs apropriate for your system.
Regards,
Juergen
