When did you first notice the poor behavior? Is there some change you made about that time that could be the cause? Is the connection heavily loaded? I did a 30-packet ping on your connection, and while there was no packet loss, your ping times ranged anywhere from 89ms to 108ms. I also mobilized an association with your server, here's a sample: saturn:$ ntpq -pn remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter ============================================================================ *127.127.28.0 .PPS. 0 l 2 16 377 0.000 0.005 0.001 +127.127.20.0 .GPS. 0 l - 16 377 0.000 -4.684 0.212 -140.142.16.34 .USNO. 1 u 40 64 377 14.155 -0.197 3.389 +132.249.20.88 .WWVB. 1 u 1 64 377 43.097 -1.901 2.597 -216.218.254.202 .CDMA. 1 u 4 64 377 35.131 -0.886 13.000 -198.60.22.240 .GPS. 1 u 1 64 377 53.884 -0.055 3.181 x70.184.242.241 198.82.1.202 3 u 19 64 377 93.164 -117.18 14.863 That jitter is actually pretty low compared to what I saw last night. It was up into the 40ms range. No doubt your network is part of the problem. What does 'ntpq -p' and 'ntpq -crv' show? -- Dennis Hilberg, Jr. \ timekeeper(at)dennishilberg(dot)com NTP Server Information: \ http://saturn.dennishilberg.com/ntp.php _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
