[Linux-users] Clocks on Linux skewed

Some of the clocks on the linux machines have started to drift.

DarkSide is about 4 minutes behind and the-wall is about 3 minutes behind.

This can cause a problem because when I try to run make i get errors of
this nature:

make[1]: *** Warning: File `flags.make' has modification time in the
future (2002-04-16 11:48:12 > 2002-04-16 10:43:58)

If the directory I am working at is mounted via NFS (ie /proj/will)

Any chance of getting these clocks to sync up automatically with the rest
of our machines?

Thank you,
