Thanks, Danny. Unfortunately, ntptrace.exe does not appear to be in the Meinberg distribution. I did find one from 2003 (V4.1.2 from Terje Mathisen) which still seems to work, but it doesn't do the same job - it only shows the single selected sync source for a remote server, whereas ntpq lists all sources. (BTW: there is no need to send me an e-mailed copy of your response.)
