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?
