Sun 3/260, SunOs 3.5Export, (That's 50Hz power, if that's relevant)
The (real-time) clock on out 3/260 server is quite slow, losing around 5
mins/day. This is a real problem as our application is somewhat
real-time. Is there any way to tweak or speed up the real-time clock on
the server? (We don't have the same problem on our 3/60's, they keep
pretty good time.)
Greg.

They didn't know of any way to tweak the clock chip and just said "it's a bad CPU board".

We got Sun to replace the CPU board (we have a Sun service contract) and it got much better, although it still keeps worse time than a $15 Timex.
