Keeping MOL system time in sync

Hi,

I have MOL 0.9.60-4 running on my PB G3 (Wallstreet) with YDL 2.0 (with an
updated 2.5.12a kernel, 2.2.1 KDE, 4.01 X11--essentially a pre-YDL 2.1).
After leaving MOL running overnight, the MOL clock (on the Apple bar)
becomes well out of synch with YDL's clock. Any thoughts how to keep the two
clocks in sync?

On the YDL side, I have shut off "pmud" using the chkconfig command, since
my trackpad dies after waking up from a sleep. Likewise, on the Mac side, I
have the Energy Saver control panel set to "Never" to disable the Mac's
sleep function. I do, however, have the YDL screen saver running. And I do
use "ntpd" to sync my YDL with several Level 2 network time servers.

I'd appreciate any thoughts on how to keep my YDL and MOL clocks in time.

Many thanks,
Bob Beaton
