- Hi folks,
-
- I am about to try xntp3 on a Sparcstation 2 running off a moderately
- busy ethernet connected to the rest of the world (NEARnet) via a 9.6kbps
- link (sigh). There is no local clock. Under these conditions
-
- -- what should I set my parameters to? tick, tickadj, etc.
-
- -- what kind of timekeeping performance should I expect
-
- -- will it work at all?

- I wish there were some addendum to clock.txt which stated the best setting
- that experience indicated for different common hardware. Somewhere I heard
- that for SS2 tick should be 9999?
