Note that my definition of synched was flexible. If the user only wants 5 second accuracy, and they allow ntpd to step, the point where it steps will meet their definition of synched. If they want 5ms accuracy, it almost never will. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
