Finding a nice (efficient) method would be useful too. With NTPd I might set the clock, wait a month check the time and create a drift file. Sometimes you have to examine a use case and conclude that it's poor return on investment. I think trying to discpline an uncharaterized oscillator with a wristwatch is certainly marginal. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
