I got manycast working thanks to your help. However, I noticed that the manycast servers are usually dropped after being reached 377 "times" without ever becoming selected, though they're all a ms away from each other.
For instance, at one moment a client has: remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter ============================================================================== *time-server1 .GPS. 1 u 5 64 377 41.583 -2.303 1.886 NTP.MCAST.NET .ACST. 16 u - 64 0 0.000 0.000 0.002 foo 10.46.4.151 2 u 2 64 377 0.179 -1.245 0.675 bar 10.46.4.151 2 u 2 64 3 0.178 -1.832 0.111 At another, merely 7s later: remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter ============================================================================== *time-server1 .GPS. 1 u 12 64 377 41.583 -2.303 1.886 NTP.MCAST.NET .ACST. 16 u - 64 0 0.000 0.000 0.002 bar 10.46.4.151 2 u 9 64 3 0.178 -1.832 0.111 I think that foo was not selected because of the NTP algorithm, but why was it dropped after reaching 377?
