You are not alone, I have seen the same problems.

The hardware this occurs on has a clock problem. The clock drifts 6 mins
in 24 hours - as this is a new system I'm going to get a replace for the
motherboard.

The problems I see are:

* /etc/ntp.drift file contains "NaN"
* ntpd appears to be setting the date far from now
* named vanishes as you report
* date command reported the year as 1934 (is this 2034 miss printed?)

Subject: ntp is bugging my named?

Hi,

my named stops several times per day and the /var/log/messages says:

Is this a known problem?

Raymond.
