OK, silly question, how do you know it's 5-10 seconds slow? Do you have seconds display somewhere or are you just looking when the minute number changes?

Running CM 4.1.3 with NTP configured on all servers to sync to two 
reliable NTP sources and peer with each other for verification. 

I run ntpq and check each server and all are synced up. 

My 7940s and 7960s are right on time. But newer phones, 7961, 7965 and 
7906 are anywhere from 5 to 10 seconds slow. 

I am aware that older phones used SCCP messages to sync time, and newer 
phones appear to use a different method. SIP firmware loads use NTP; 
what do SCCP firmwares use? 

Even after a **#** reset, the phone's time is lagged. 

Is this a defect of the Java-based firmware, or do I have another issue 
within the system causing the lag in the time displayed on the newer phones? 

Bill
