So, this one it totaly off, and I wonder why it doesn't synchronize. > The next server (134.93.226.19) is running sarge version of ntpd and > successfully syncs: > > 134.93.226.2 131.188.3.220 2 u 199 1024 3 0.983 2.203 > 0.310 > *134.93.227.254 192.53.103.108 2 u 443 1024 377 0.446 -0.277 > 0.340 This actually the first output that makes any sense so far.

So you have: 134.93.226.19 (int1) peers with: - 134.93.226.2 (fw1) - 134.93.227.254 (fw2) fw1 and fw2 synchronize with external sources and peer with each other. All 3 seem to be synchronize properly, atleast currently. Some other hosts has all 3 of them as server, but does not synchronize. In your previous mails you had 134.93.226.2 (fw1) always as stratum 5, which doesn't make sense. Anyway, it's recommended that you have atleast 3 peers with a higher stratum and then peer with each other. fw1 and fw2 only have 2 higher stratum servers, peer with each other, and has a stratum 3 server too which is probably totaly useless, even though it might give more accurate time.
