Hi all
Yes, negative delay. We see this on one of our clients (real IPs concealed):

It's a multicast client with symmetric authentication, running ntpd
4.2.6.p2 on Linux Debian Squeeze. From our munin graphs, this started to
happen three weeks ago, and all in a sudden.
You can get this if either the client or the server has a broken (i.e.
stock Windows HAL or similar) timing kernel, with 10+ ms granularity.
