   There was a "Leap Second" this year at midnight new years.  Dunno if 
this accounts for it.  I have heard of many systems around the world that 
were running Solaris (and RAS services) and NTP that *rebooted* at 
midnight!  DOH!!!  There has even been some flutter on the linux distro 
lists about some Linux systems having problems with the Leap Second.  

   Hope this helps...
