I have been using 2 unix clients: solaris 8, and solaris 10.

Below is the output of ntpdc on xx.xx.xx.b1 ntp-server:


ntpdc> monlist
remote address          port local address      count m ver rstr avgint  lstint
===============================================================================
xx.xx.xx.aa              123 xx.xx.xx.b1         6298 4 4      0     15       5
xx.xx.xx.b2              123 xx.xx.xx.b1         6297 1 4    1c0     15      13
xx.xx.xx.c1              123 xx.xx.xx.b1         6171 3 4    1c0     16      34
xx.xx.xx.c1              123 xx.xx.xx.b1         5787 3 4    1c0     17     253
solaris8                 123 xx.xx.xx.b1          104 3 3    1c0    967     317
solaris10                123 xx.xx.xx.b1          133 3 3    1c0    750     337
ntpdc>

I presume, column "ver" shows the ntp version.(3 for both solaris clients)
What do other columns mean?

I presume "rstr" means relative stratum:
0 means xx.xx.xx.aa is above xx.xx.xx.b1
1c0 means all others are clients 1 level lower to xx.xx.xx.b1. Is that so?

Peter
