Wouldn't you want to use floor instead?: tos floor 2
http://www.ee.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/html/manyopt.html >From what that page says: Ceiling: Servers with stratum at or above ceiling will be discarded if there are at least minclock peers remaining. This value defaults to 15, but can be changed to any number from 1 to 15. vs Floor: Peers with strata below floor will be discarded if there are at least minclock peers remaining. This value defaults to 1, but can be changed to any number from 1 to 15. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Geir G Sent: Friday, June 29, 2007 3:17 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [ntp:questions] NTP behaviour when server is not synchronized We added the following line to ntp.conf, this solved the problem (i.e. made ntpd stay synchronized to the stratum 1 server even when the other server reported stratum 12). Do you understand why this makes a difference? tos ceiling 2 I do understand that more detailed information (i.e. ntpq output) is needed to provide an accurate answer. I will check whether is it possible to obtain this information. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
