I am running NetBSD 0.9 on a Dell 486D/50 with 8MB RAM.  This machine is used
almost exclusively as an INN 1.4 news server.  My problem is that just about
once per day the time on the system jumps forward a few hours (I think it is
off by about +3 hours).  I have to manually changed the time using the 'date'
command.

I am running the GENERICAHA kernel, if that helps.  Does anyone have any
clues?  Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
