I have a machine that experienced some troubles with some of the real time stuff that I'm running. One lead that I have is that NTP daemon may have moved the time, causing false timeouts.
How do I find out if NTP daemon did indeed move time at all? Any logs? I do see NTP daemon restart in /var/log/messages, but I don't know if time adjustment should be there as well.
to clarify: I need to understand it from the logs, after the event. May be 2 days after the time was adjusted. Running commands to see the current status doesn't help.
this is good info, thanks. Still, after time has been moved, this will be 0 and I will have lost my information. Doesn't ntp log any messages to tell me it's done it at all? – n-alexander – 2010-08-27T14:47:04.700
