I now have a management script that can take a collection of ntp.conf files, install them on farm machines, and start statistics gathering. Real data has been observed gathering in the logfiles. The script can also collect all logfiles for post-analysis.
That is, my first test launch looked like farmer -s test1 fe.conf nd.conf ne.conf and getting the data back looks like this: farmer -c test1 The stats files will land in subdirectories named for the test hosts. The ntpd log file is also copied. Less happily, the Odroid people are failing to get their act together. They tweaked their kernel build so gps-ppio is theoretically available, but our own Dan Drown found that the support doesn't work. He's sent them a patch, and I've sent them a rocket that if I don't get s straight answer about how to query and set the GPIO pin binding *that I can explain to newbies*, we're going to drop the Odroid. Pointing me at devicetree docs with an airy handwave usn't good enough, and I'm running out of patience. -- <a href="http://www.catb.org/~esr/">Eric S.
