I can't get my NTPd daemons to stay sync'd... I have one local server contacting tic.nrc.ca for its only (stratum 1) source, and then all the other servers in the office look to that one server. It syncs up (ntpq's associations output shows it's there and happy) and everything else syncs up and is happy, but then at some point the whole thing starts to fall apart, and the hosts go to a 'reject' condition. I haven't been able to figure it out yet. -A.
