[axxs-sysadmin] wrong time on axxs.org - ntpdate?

[aketus]

A good idea, and one I tried to bring to attention in October of last year...

http://lists.indymedia.org/pipermail/axxs-sysadmin/2006-October/1017-15.html

Better late than never :/

At least with the sites i've managed, it hasn't been possible to  
compensate for the time difference, since it hasn't been exactly 2  
hours difference, but always out by about a quarter of an hour on top  
of that. (i.e GMT+10 hours on AptGetAnarchy currently reads at 16:32  
instead of 15:16)
