Ok thank you for your answer first of all i tried your command : sudo /sbin/service ntpd restart and it seems that the sudo command doesn't accept my root password. I never tried this before. Is it normal ? I tried the command line in a root shell : /sbin/service ntpd restart and the answer is always : ArrÃt de ntpd : [ OK ] ntpd : Synchronisation avec le serveur de temps : [ÃCHOUÃ] DÃmarrage de ntpd : [ OK ] So i think i forget to add the right authorization in firestarter. Could you help me for that ? Thanxes. Eric Le jeu 24/06/2004 Ã 21:11, D. D.
