Hey, Adrain, if you're starting an NTPd wishlist I have a few to add. ;) - Requery DNS to grab new IP when server is .INIT. - "Autopool" config option. Queries DNS for [0.|1.|2.|3.|]pool.ntp.org, dynamically adds results to running NTPd, after a settling period keeps 50% with best delay, drops the other half and starts the process over. Can and should be limited using minpoll, noselect, and new MAXFALSETICKERS. _______________________________________________ timekeepers mailing list [email protected] https://fortytwo.ch/mailman/cgi-bin/listinfo/timekeepers
