WRT fileserver -- what are you using to synch clocks?  xntp, the NTP =
wrapper
from IBM/Transarc AFS?  Something else?

WRT client -- you can disable time synch by using "-nosettime" on the =
afsd
command line in your startup sequence.



Usage: /usr/vice/etc/afsd [-blocks <1024 byte blocks in cache>] [-files
<files in cache>] [-rootvol <name of AFS root volume>] [-stat <number of
stat entries>] [-memcache] [-cachedir <cache directory>] [-mountdir =
<mount
location>] [-daemons <number of daemons to use>] [-nosettime] [-verbose]
[-rmtsys] [-debug] [-chunksize <log(2) of chunk size>] [-dcache <number =
of
dcache entries>] [-volumes <number of volume entries>] [-biods <number =
of
bkg I/O daemons (aix vm)>] [-prealloc <number of 'small' preallocated
blocks>] [-confdir <configuration directory>] [-logfile <Place to keep =
the
CM log>] [-waitclose] [-shutdown] [-afsdb] [-files_per_subdir <log(2) of =
the
number of cache files per cache subdirectory>] [-dynroot] [-fakestat]
[-fakestat-all] [-nomount] [-help]
Where: -memcache      run diskless
       -nosettime     don't set the time
       -verbose       display lots of information
       -rmtsys        start NFS rmtsysd program
       -debug         display debug info
       -waitclose     make close calls synchronous
       -shutdown      Shutdown all afs state
       -afsdb         Enable AFSDB support
       -dynroot       Enable dynroot support
       -fakestat      Enable fakestat support for cross-cell mounts
       -fakestat-all  Enable fakestat support for all mounts
       -nomount       Do not mount AFS
