Re: Periosically get xntpd message synchronisation lost, should I be concerned?
Jan 6 14:34:30 dmc29 xntpd[918]: synchronized to 1.2.3.4, stratum=3
You need worry only if you don't get the second message or if the messages flood your syslog.
Hope this helps
Chris

Re: Periosically get xntpd message synchronisation lost, should I be concerned?
Yes and no.
If you do 'ntpq -p' the output contains a column titled "offset". This is the number of milliseconds difference between your server's clock and the time source. Technical Knowledge Base document #KBRC00001347 notes that "When this number exceeds 128 then NTP makes a big adjustment (and the message synchronization lost appears in the logfile)."
Regards!

The second message, for example, "synchronized to nn.nn.nn.nn, stratum=14" may not show up for another 5 or 10 minutes later.

If you are worried about seeing what kind of jump your server is making, enable the 'driftfile' option. It is listed close to the top of the docs in the ntp.conf file.

If you are not supposed to be sysncing Time with a Time Server (NTP network time Protocol) you'd probably not to worry.
.. Check Date & time of ur system.
.. Check the battery of real time clock (rtc), it may be low & You lost time when powered off for long time.
G'd luck
