Thanks, David, I though that might be the case. The systems are already running quite a small minpoll, and I'm not sure I want to reduce it further (to be kinder to the servers involved). It's a pity that someone has not ported chrony to Windows, as that's the platform where I need it. I guess they might need to add some of the interpolation code as well. An end-node, client-only port (no ref-clock) would be fine.
