Climbing up the thread, in that message and since then you said: >>>>>>> files in the client's /etc/ntp: [no ntpkey_iff_stasis] >>>>>>> [1st cryptostats] >>>>>>> 53712 65898.557 ntpkey_IFFpar_stasis.3342803910 mod 384 >>>>> No, I don't.

Nice terminology. I would have naively called that a voluntary propagation of misleading informations in the intent to hide a previous mistake. But your wording is way better. While at it you should have dared to suggest that there is confusion on my side... Hey, wait a second. Bravo, you've done it: >>> You may be confused by the fact the one of my sets of results was >>> generated while stasis was configured to serve authenticated time to >>> a third host. > The existence of this IFFpar file is [...] The heart of the ConfiguringAutokey problem. The main reason of this whole debate. The *only* single point of disagreement between us. There are other disagreements, but they are only secondary consequences of this one single point, and they will mostly self-dissolve once the truth known. >> What means this 0x2 at certificate loading?

Very odd 3rd cryptostats, I don't understand it: - Your 1st cryptostats was similar to mine when I have added a ntpkey_iff_Client to be loaded at startup. - Your 2nd cryptostats was similar to mine when I have added a "crypto ident iff" ntp.conf statement. - This 3rd cryptostats doesn't look like anything I ever saw. What is it? Not client mode I suppose?
