How can I verify if the stepping has been disabled or not?
ntp.drift at the moment is -500.000
Which is way out of spec and cannot be corrected by ntpd.
Yes, it can be corrected. There are ways of offsetting NTP to allow for
clocks which are more than 500 ppm off nominal. Likely it's
OS-dependant, but for Windows I documented the method here:
http://www.satsignal.eu/ntp/setup.html#broken-clock
I would certainly agree that if the clock is more than 500 ppm out it
should be investigated and possibly replaced!
Thanks David, very interesting. I cannot update the NTP version on my
server but I'm sure sooner or later with a main sw upgrade they'll reach
version 4.2.6 and I'll keep in mind this new option in case I have a bad
clock.
Thanks
Antonio
