Dear folks,
Could you explain me what the word 'outlyer' means in all NTP related
documents? Should I worry about remote servers marked with space in
output of "ntpq -p" or not?
Thanks
Gabor
It's where one system is grossly different to all the rest. Suppose that
you had 10 server. Your offsets with 9 servers are in the range -0.1s to
+0.1s, but one server shows an offset of 0.9s. It would be the
"outlier" - something which lies outside the rest. See:
