What will happen when ntpd is started has been discussed elsewhere in

If you want to clear a very large error by a pure slew, the best way
is not to start ntpd until you have cleared the error, but, instead,
to use whatever utility your OS uses to access the system calls that
ntpd uses, and set a high slew rate, which you only clear when you are
approaching zero offset.

Why are you telling me this? And what does it have to do with the OP's
question?


I probably quoted the wrong bit of your article, but I'm telling everyone on the newsgroup/mailing list and I'm telling them because there seems to be discussion of avoiding steps for time errors that can take days to months to clear at <500ppm.
