David,
You have forced the poll interval and time constant to 64 s. Should that
source fail and the host switch to another source with poll interval
clamped to 1024 s, the discipline loop is seriously undersampled and
could well become unstable.

The reference implementation of ntpd contributes to the deluge in a
small way! Running a Motorola Oncore as a reference clock causes
my home server to query its internet servers every 16 seconds. It's
nothing I would do by choice; they serve only as a sanity check on
my Oncore reference clock There does not appear to be any way of
turning this feature off short of modifying the code.
Agreed. I would like to have my client PCs poll their two LAN
servers at 64s and one Internet server at 1024s (also as a sanity
check), but it seems that if any LAN server is set to 64s the
Internet servers are also polled at 64s intervals.
David
Does that happen even if you specify MINPOLL=10 for the internet
servers?
No, it does not, so I've altered my configuration to have minpoll=10 for
the backup Internet servers.
Thanks for the suggestion!
David
