That is something that NTP is not going to be able to survive! It will not make the correction from 1975 to today except when it is told to do so on startup. When your server is not available on startup, you are out of luck. Of course with "normal" conditions, e.g. a powerfail bringing down everything and clients booting a bit faster than the server, it will work just fine because the client is still within the acceptable time difference. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
