People don't generally do big downloads during the boot of a machine! On a big network, the most likely reason for rebooting a timeserver in prime time is a power failure. In which case the whole network is likely to be down. At worst, using ntpdate -b, you only get something like the current ntpd behavour. Typically you end up within a millisecond. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
