Hi All, I'm new to NTP, glad to meet you here. I did some experiments to test NTP performance on WINNT. In an isolated network, two machines are inter connnected with a switcher. Machine A is configure as a stratum 12 NTP server, using lcl as reference clock; machine B is sychronized to machine A. Then, 'ntpq - p' is performed on machine B every 16 seconds. The output of ntpq is cooked by a python script and offset field is recorded to log file. After about 2 hours, I check the log file and found the offset value is 4 ~ 8 ms. Is this normal? I mean if things are properly done, how small the offset I can expect? Thanks.
The OS is Windows XP Pro SP3 and NTP software is 4.2.4-p7 from mainberg. http://www.meinberg.de/download/ntp/windows/ntp-4.2....@copenhagen-o-win32-setup.exe _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
