Right. Because all of the servers are free-wheeling.

Steve,
You scratch a sore spot as I verified over the last couple of days. You
can always increase the mindist, but eventually the orphan servers will
drift away from each other. The problem is the orphan server has to be
selected before the intersection algorithm. I changed that in the
develo

I doubt that many would consider the initiation of a slew as being
synchronised. I would suggest most people would define synchro

That's what it is intended to do, but what people seem to be saying here
is that it will easily

My friend's ISP had an unknown feature - a firewall on the ISP side which
blocked traffic other than Web and e-mail. Changing that firewall setting
from "high" to "low" and restarting his router allowed NTP to work
correctly and discipline his PC's clock.
Thanks to all the help and suggestions

I don't understand your question. The interwsection algorithm doesn' t
care if ther are two or twenty parcicipants in the argument.

[Dawood] The broadcast was successful after adding shim (Setting "tos

Thank you very much for your explanation.
I went through the definitions of NTP "correctness interval,
intersection algorithm and majority subset".
The broadcast was successful after adding shim (Setting "tos mindist
0.010") to the correctness interval. It worked fine once but when I
tried
