I did. And like others I see this: oPPS(0) .GPPS. 0 l 3 8 377 0.000 0.001 0.008 *LOCAL(0) .LOCL. 12 l 66 8 0 0.000 0.000 0.008 oPPS(0) .GPPS. 0 l 1 8 377 0.000 0.003 0.008 *LOCAL(0) .LOCL. 12 l - 8 1 0.000 0.000 0.008 oPPS(0) .GPPS. 0 l 6 8 377 0.000 0.003 0.008 *LOCAL(0) .LOCL. 12 l 21 8 4 0.000 0.000 0.008 oPPS(0) .GPPS. 0 l 1 8 377 0.000 0.001 0.008 *LOCAL(0) .LOCL. 12 l 56 8 200 0.000 0.000 0.008 oPPS(0) .GPPS. 0 l 8 8 377 0.000 0.005 0.008 LOCAL(0) .LOCL. 12 l 71 8 0 0.000 0.000 0.008 oPPS(0) .GPPS. 0 l 1 8 377 0.000 0.005 0.008 *LOCAL(0) .LOCL. 12 l 8 8 2 0.000 0.000 0.008 etc. etc. I don't see LOCL marked as a falseticker. This clock has been running and keeping acceptable time for weeks (as an experiment). Since this last came up. I mentioned the version because I *don't* have the OP's various problems -- either in configuration or execution which I think, as I said last month, are the OP's real problem BTW, the other snippet seems to refute the idea that you can't run like this with varying minpoll (although the peer was marked noselect). Or perhaps I misunderstand the assertion. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
