Chuck, You know ntpd (via ntpq -c peers) does a dang good job of monitoring the statistics of your time sources.
ntpq -c peers shows the sort of statistics that a long-lived client expects to be of high quality. Offset, delay, and jitter are very important to the ntpd algorithms, and it tracks these very meticulously. I would advise, that ntpq -c peers is what you want to be looking at. Tim. ________________________________________ From: [email protected] [[email protected]] on behalf of Chuck [[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, June 16, 2012 9:07 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Pool] Faster NTP Pool website On Wednesday, June 13, 2012, Ask Bjørn Hansen wrote: > Hi everyone, > > In addition to the change below, I also booted up VMware and made some IE9 > fixes so it should now be rendering the SVG based graphs properly, for example: http://www.pool.ntp.org/scores/207.171.7.152 > ok this unfortunately causes a huge problem for me.. i have a monitoring web page that plugs the graphs into it that refreshes every 60 min. the graphs have not worked for a while now and when i go to my 'account' page listing my servers the netspeed link is also broken... i used the url with my ip addresses as listed above and i get a graph with just dots, no lines connecting them... i suppose that is usable but i honestly do not like it... however i cannot click on the graph to get the image url to plug into my monitor web page.. meaning my page is useless to me at this time.. will graph images eventually come back where i can actually link to them? or should i trash any idea of monitoring my stuff? i cant use and do not need the entire page that is returned by the above url. i only want the graph images. my page lists the 6 servers i wish to keep track of along with their graphs in a nice neat bundle where i can easily view any server quickly. > And from the weblog: http://news.ntppool.org/2012/06/fastly.html > > > Today I am experimenting with hosting www.pool.ntp.org through Fastly.
