Did anyone else experience issues with NTP today? We had our server times update to the year 2000 at around 3:30 MT, then revert back to 2012.
Are you sure that you are actually using NTP to set your clock? For you to sync with 2000, you should have had multiple confused peers from multiple time sources; possibly a false radio signal.... NTP by default has a panic threshold of 1000 seconds. This _should_ have caused NTP to execute a panic shutdown, instead of setting the clock back 30 million seconds.
