It works fine with the time server of my ISP I sync my server from, and my
server also syncs the correct time from that server.
Yes but your local server will have a stratum number one higher than the
server it syncs to.

I haven't change the source server so far, because I've upgraded to
3.7 and have tried to sync the Windows client to the server. I've
experienced three cases with the new version:
1, The synchronization fails due to the stratum.
2, The synchronization succeeds.
3, The synchronization fails with error message: peer is unreachable.
As I've experienced, after starting the server there is a period when
the first case happens, and after a while the synchronization mostly
succeeds. The third case was rare. Is this the normal behaviour?
1) no. 2) yes. 3) no, sounds like a transient network problem.
As for the DNS problem, thanks. I don't know what's wrong, however. I did a
named reload after modifying the zone file, and there's the notify support
between the two nameservers.
Did you remember to increase the zone serial number when you made your
changes?

Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
