    Question server time wrong after cold start

    Hello,

    Not sure where to start...

    I have installed ntp and configured it to sync the time successfully on my hardy server.

    Since installing ntp, each time i do a cold boot after power off... the server time is out by exactly -6 days!

    Reboot is fine, its just when i power off...

    any ideas where to start with this one?

    Bad battery on the motherboard?
