Bob,

The clock drift on samoon probably has something to do with its firewall
setup.  Before the recent reboot, samoon was using timeserver.unidata.ucar.edu
to set its clock.  Since the setup hasn't changed, the firewall is the likely
culprit.

Just for the record, the clock on injection machines must be maintained
as well as possible, so this is not an issue that can slide.  Thanks.

Tom
