I also have a problem. The system time appears to be an hour fast every 24 hours of running. The battery backed time on my AT is correct. Since I poll other machines on the hour it is kind of a pain. I am running uport V/AT v2.4. Has anybody else experienced this problem. If so, is there a remedy? Thanks in advance.
