I think the best assumption you can make is to take it at face value. It looks like leontp is about 10ms "off" from your local time. One of you is wrong and at this point there is no way to know who is wrong
But of course you appear to be getting time closer to arbiter So either arbiter or leontp is wrong. You don't know which. I would add five more pool servers to your set of reference clocks and let it run over night. Pool servers are good because many people use them so if there was a problem they would hear about it In any case you don't have enough reference clocks. Get some more diversity, certainly more than two sources One more thing, just because an NTP server is shown as getting time from GPS does not mean it is accurate. They may be using only NMEA sentences and no PPS in which case a 10ms error would be quite good On Fri, Oct 14, 2016 at 5:31 PM, gmx tallahassee <gmx.tallahas...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi all, > > I'm checking out the leontp ntp time server (leontp.com).
