I thought the NTP stratum 1 reference clocks were about as accurate as one can get. Off topic a bit, but one of my installed utilities is an SNTP client that can use any public time source as a reference clock. I'm using NIST, NASA, or the USNO depending. Aren't these sources based on the atomic clocks that claim accuracy of 1 millisecond per century or so? http://www.arachnoid.com/abouttime/index.html ( several interesting free things here) free - subject to the terms of the license agreement http://www.arachnoid.com/careware/index.html ( something at least one person on this list needs to take to heart ) Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=30626&t=30560 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
