Does squeakci.org have NTP installed? If so, I don't think it's working:

OK, I'm awake now. Network Time Protocol daemon. No, it doesn't have that.
I hit the link above and saw a timing statement for box3 and your FreeBSD. You find that box3 and your server are out of sync and need to be in better sync? Is that situation here?
Yes, and the right way to get them in sync is for squeakci.org to have (and keep) the right time, through ntp. That lets us not go crazy when debugging things between slave and master.
I haven't seen your FreeBSD box before. Please tell me what you're doing to better assist you.
I'm experimenting with having machines run headless slaves so that the community at large can, say, test builds on Windows machines, OS X machines, and so on.
So as a minimal test, I'm trying out my FreeBSD because (a) I have it running and (b) FreeBSD doesn't get as much love as it should.

OK, It's running on the process list and gives the time as thus. [1] Please try that. I must go and get a coffee, so if it needs tuning, etc. I'll be back in half an hour.
