Poll it with an NTP client and check the stratum. Use ntpq to check the stratum. If it is using the kernel time discipline, monitor the kernel estimate of error (and possibly the state of the kernel discipline). Note that a lost server doesn't mean the time is wrong, as it will coast along with the last known frequency correction. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
