when does ubuntu sync with ntp

Asked by macice

I'm running feisty Desktop and have set the box up to auto sync with NTP Time Servers selected "Keep synchronised with internet servers" under Time and Date Settings. Can you tell me how often the internet time server is polled for the correct time?

Cheers,

Neall

This link explains what is happening quite well, http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/NTP.html as you can see, it's not as simple as just "how often does it check" :)

Can you help with this problem?
