} that really on date.
CSuite doesn't supply NTP, so this really has nothing to do with
CSuite apart from the problems caused by it.
There have been some serious security problems found with NTP.
The best thing would be to stop using it or to upgrade it immediately.
If RedHat doesn't provide current rpm's, then you can get the source
from ftp://ftp.udel.edu/pub/ntp/ntp4/ntp-4.0.99m-rc3.tar.gz . It is
fairly easy to install, just the typical "./configure && make && make
install".
As for setting your clock manually, try using the "date" command.
If that doesn't work, bring down the system, set it in the BIOS setup,
keeping in mind that you will have to set it three hours fast to
account for the difference between local time and GMT.
