Rick, Now I'm confused. You write: > Running the NTP server is a whole lot better than even a daily 'ntpdate' via CRON. and > The spiffy thing about time on System z is that the clock is incredibly stable. So which is it?
We wrote about having one server running the full xntpd to a reliable time source. I guess that would make it a stratum n-1 server. Then the other "penguins in the colony" run ntpdate nightly against the first server (thanks to Rob van der Heij for that suggestion). That would make them stratum n-2 servers. It seemed like a good balance. But we never tested it with an app that demands clock synchronization. So did you find that this model didn't work? "Mike MacIsaac" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (845) 433-7061
