No. That means when you query DNS for pool.ntp.org that 5 servers are selected for those that the monitoring server scored high enough. The weighting ensures that higher bandwidth are picked as one of these 5 more often. Note that you'll get a 5 for 0.pool.ntp.org and 1.pool.ntp.org and 2.pool.ntp.org and 3.pool.ntp.org. They might overlap but not likely. And they'll be a mix of high and low bandwidth, more often high. _______________________________________________ timekeepers mailing list [email protected] https://fortytwo.ch/mailman/cgi-bin/listinfo/timekeepers
