It comes down to the stability of the stratum 2 and the amount of jitter in the connection from the stratum 1 to you and the stratum 1 to the stratum 2 to you. If you give ntp both clocks it will actually work out which it thinks is better and choose for itself (you should have at least four clocks and if you are serving a lot of clients as most pool servers do probably five upstream clocks to allow for failures) John _______________________________________________ timekeepers mailing list [email protected] https://fortytwo.ch/mailman/cgi-bin/listinfo/timekeepers
