That of the remote host.

Incidentally, why are you running the local clock driver at stratum 5? 
That should only be done if your machine is a server and is being 
synchronised to a reliable time source by means other than NTP.  Local 
clock has no place at all on clients and should only be used on servers 
as a deliberate choice.  When synchrnonised to an unreliable source, 
like the undisciplined local clock (including that clock as a fall back 
to external servers), it should be set to the highest stratum that is 
still acceptable to its clients, if used at all.
