Re: system clock about rx4640
Now, I should amend what I said above. I said set up NTP and point to 1 of the NTP servers on the Internet. I should have said, point to 3 NTP servers on the Internet. That way you are much more likely to not have any issues with one NTP server giving bad time.

Re: system clock about rx4640
1. buying a Radio clock. It costs. the most accurate time source available.
2. free: NTP sources on the internet. accurate enough.
3. system clock. free.
least accurate.
NTP sources in the internet is the free accurate (than system clock )solution.

The OLYMPIAN's have spoken. Look like the NTP solution would be you're best bet.

Re: system clock about rx4640
Yet another victim of the illusion that a computer clock can tell time.
This goes back decades and is one of the reasons the NTP protocol was invented.

Re: system clock about rx4640
You don't want to generate a mini D-link fiasco :)
If you have multiple servers, it would be best to have a small number of them (2 or 3) be the ones which contact the Internet servers and then the rest contact those for their time. That way you have redundancy, without putting undue stress on the Internet time servers.
Best of all would be the previous suggestion of getting a radio/GPS time source and having those two or three servers become your own stratum 1 time servers, perhaps even helping-out by serving time on the Internet...
