That is of course another problem. Maybe he should switch to chrony which does allow slewing even of large offsets, and does it via kernel discipline. (Unfortunately it works only on Linux or BSD, so if he is using windows, that suggestion does not work). Chrony will also allow slewing faster than 500PPM so that problem does not occur (unless the slew rate gets up to 100000PPM) _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
