You are missing the point. The bug doesn't show up if the clock filter is filled with 8 valid samples before the connection is blocked. There has to be at least one MAXDISPERSE sample (not the last one). Blocking the connection on ntpd start right after fourth reply was recevied seems to trigger the bug reliably. If you want to trigger it in a normal situation, you need to partially flush the filter, let few valid samples in and then block the connection pernamently. This doesn't work reliably and you might need to retry it several times. > If you are using an old release version, that > might explain your results. I can reproduce it with 4.2.6p1 and 4.2.7p32, I haven't tried anything else. -- Miroslav Lichvar _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
