The OS is relevant only to the extent of the effect it has on the file path. The location of your statsdir is defined in ./etc/ntp.conf. > I'm not even sure that I've enabled them. If you have a block like this in your configuration file, you might see the *stats files in your statsdir ... | statsdir /var/log/ntpstats/ | statistics loopstats peerstats clockstats | filegen loopstats file loopstats type day enable | filegen peerstats file peerstats type day enable | filegen clockstats file clockstats type day enable Keep in mind that the statsdir must be writable by the UID/GID that ntpd is running under. If your time server is only polling the GPS, there is probably little difference between the entries in the peerstats and loopstats files. If, on the other hand, your time server is polling multiple time sources it is best to plot the peerstats lines for the GPS. -- Steve Kostecke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> NTP Public Services Project - http://support.ntp.org/ _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
