Also make sure they are running NTPV4. Otherwise you will need to specify the version. (NTPV4 servers will accept NTPV3 requests, but not v.v.) I also noted that there was a poor choice of servers, i.e. a lot of well known, overloaded, stratum one servers, when it probably needs lightly loaded, local stratum 2 servers. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
