I've been playng with the tickadj command, and am currently set
at 9926, default is 10,000.  And I'm keeping pretty good time now.
Running ntpdate in slew the clock mode, once per hour, I'm
logging this now:

Dec 13 20:35:02 coyote ntpdate[1858]: adjust time server
128.252.19.1 offset 0.151181 sec

So while its not perfect, its adequate.

As to whats doing it, I have NDI.
