Time keeps lagging
-
I have pfSense running a virtual machine (VMware) on a Windows Server 2008 host. The time on the host is synched with time.nist.org. In pfSense, the time is always slow. I can set to be correct by rebooting the physical machine, but after about 1 minute of uptime, the time gets slower and slower, and usually stops at -20 minutes. This is causing problems with certificates going across the network.
I've tried setting the date manually with date, and I've tried changing the time server in System>General Setup.

search the forums, I seem to remember this being covered already.

Assuming you're running v 2.0.1 or older, you could consider upgrading to 2.0.2 or 2.1-BETA
Also check the following thread:

You can also try adjusting the timecounter on pfSense, search around the forum for "kern.timecounter.hardware" you should find some info on changing it. (It's also covered in the book)
