The problem is that kerberos is not the authoritative master. It really
is bitsy. Odie is providing time service for the floor. It is synced
using ntp. Kerberos is the one that is off. For instance
timedc> c odie sms bitsy orf kerberos
time on ODIE.MIT.EDU is 44 ms. ahead of time on ELRIC
time on SMS.MIT.EDU is 40 ms. ahead of time on ELRIC
time on BITSY.MIT.EDU is 46 ms. ahead of time on ELRIC
time on ORF.MIT.EDU is 43 ms. ahead of time on ELRIC
time on KERBEROS.MIT.EDU is 42288 ms. behind time on ELRIC
timedc>
My guess is that ntp on kerberos is not running.
