If you can somehow enforce QoS or prioritize NTP, that will help. I run bittorrent on my ADSL (often near the full capacity of the line) with no ill effect on my scores, but I've also constructed my service classes carefully. NTP takes priority over nearly everything else (it's tied for 1st place with DNS) and has a guaranteed 10kbps (roughly 3 queries+responses per sec). Next comes interactive ssh and various chat protocols that I'd rather not have all laggy. After that comes bulk traffic like web, ftp, mail, and ssh without IPTOS_LOWDELAY. After all of that, any unclassified traffic, like bittorrent. CK -- GDB has a 'break' feature; why doesn't it have 'fix' too? _______________________________________________ timekeepers mailing list [email protected] https://fortytwo.ch/mailman/cgi-bin/listinfo/timekeepers
