- I have about 75 well-adjusted clients that are quite happy with
- the broadcast ntp service they get from a handful of servers. All
- are running xntp3. However, I have some Apollo broadcast clients
- stuck at xntp2, and I had to dedicate one of the (xntpd3) servers
- to broadcasts in version 2 mode to keep the Apollos in the know.
