&gt; Hi,<p>&gt;<p>&gt; I noticed when: ntpd logs time adjustments in: &#x2F;var&#x2F;log&#x2F;daemon it uses a<p>&gt; unit of &quot;ppm&quot;:<p>&gt;<p>&gt; Jun 22 23:22:20 server ntpd[45813]: adjusting clock frequency by<p>&gt; -1.127600 to 0.056400ppm<p>&gt;<p>&gt; I checked: man ntpd and: man 2 adjfreq, and while: man 2 adjfreq<p>&gt; mentions the same unit - &quot;ppm&quot; - it doesn&#x27;t explain what that means.<p>&gt;<p>&gt; What does &quot;ppm&quot; stand for ?<p>Since you can&#x27;t use a search engine to figure that out, I&#x27;ll give you<p>a hint. ppm means &quot;you are stupid&quot;.
