Yes, if simply go by the offset figure in NTP, you can usually get sub-millisecond figures between two machines. If you push your "maxpoll" down some, like to 6 (64s) or even 4 (16s) then you can keep things nice and tight (this is for LAN traffic only, I wouldn't do that on a remote Internet sever). My local S2 machines typically even have a Root Dispersion under 2ms (usually closer to 1ms). Nothing to complain about there... _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
