Hi folks, I tried to start an NTP server on a XP Home box. The time source of this box is the local clock. Now I have a linux box that tries to sync with this xp box but it doesn't work for at least 5 minutes of the NTP service starting. It returns error about stratum being too high.
I've searched around and people are saying that it takes about 5-8 minutes before the server trusts the local clock as the source. Nobody has said why or if there is a way to fix this. Can someone provide me with a solution to my problem or even a explanation as to why I have to wait 5-8 minutes for the clock to sync. Thanks for any help you may provide. John. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
