"as soon as they arrive" seems ugly to me, but maybe that's just because I've been thinking of using l_fp to compute an offset and using the offset to adjust the time with an effective pivot of "now". An alternative approach would be to get rid of pivots totally. If we removed all of the pivot code and logic from the current code, it will work until 2036. How long will it take to implement and deploy a new version of ntp protocol with enough bits? My straw man would be 64 bits of ns. That's 500+ years. (if I did the math right) -- These are my opinions. I hate spam. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@ntpsec.org http://lists.ntpsec.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
