You are right.� On my headnode, I use pool.ntp.org as the time server, and it is stratum 2.

On my client node, I use the headnode as the time server, and stratum is 3.

Note, too, that this will vary -- it depends on what server you get (which could be different every time). My experience have been that I got some server that's a stratum 2, 3, or 4.


The line:

fudge�� 127.127.1.0 stratum 10

is still there in ntp.conf (at least on Fedora Core 2) - should this be commented out on both headnode and slave nodes?

I think it should be commented out only on the head node and *only* if the user tells us that they don't want to synchronize to any other external servers. We should probably insert a comment in the file to this effect if we comment out this like.


The stratum which ntp gives up on, is 14.

Initially when the client node is built, the stratum of the headnode (on the client node) is 14.� I believe the stratum will become 'correct' after some time, and if not you can always restart ntpd...� not sure if this is an issue or not though.

It is not.
