[ntp:questions] Comparison between ntpd and TSCclock

2008-05-13 Thread eugenemil
Developers at the University of Melbourne have produced a time-sync client called "TSCclock" which exchanges standard NTP packets with a NTP server. They assert that TSCclock, which runs on FreeBSD and at least two flavors of Linux (Ubuntu and Fedora), provides substantially better synchronization

Would the following work with a reference clock? Step 1. Force an initial step adjustment by running ntpd in "one-shot" mode with -gq options and "tinker step 0.001" in the config file to get below the 128ms step threshold. Step 2. Restart ntpd in "normal mode" (without -gq and without "tinker st

Re: [ntp:questions] "ntpd -q" is slow compared to ntpdate

2008-10-14 Thread eugenemil
The following argument can be made in favor of running ntpd -gq: Suppose you want to reduce the time offset to (nearly) zero as rapidly as possible on start-up and this causes you to be dissatisfied with the behavior of ntpd when it it starts up and calculates an initial offset of slightly less tha

Re: [ntp:questions] Sub-millisecond NTP synchronization for local network

2008-12-04 Thread eugenemil
If your apparatus is indoors where GPS reception is not possible, you could use a CDMA timing receiver (such as this one from EndRun: http://www.endruntechnologies.com/pdf/PraecisCt.pdf) to make one of your machines a stratum 1 NTP server. If running ntpd on the other three machines does not provid

[ntp:questions] Poul-Henning Kamp and re-write of NTP

2014-12-06 Thread eugenemil
Has anyone noticed that Poul-Henning Kamp has work well underway, funded by the Linux Foundation, which involves a complete re-write of NTP from the ground up? (It isn't clear what the new software will be called, but it sticks with the NTP packet format.) He has been posting occasional updates
