- We are currently considering setting up a SPARC (ECL) as a
- stratum 1 NTP time server.
-
- One of our problems is that we currently only have equipment
- that distribute accurate PPS signals but no timecode information.
-
- We are wondering if it is possible to setup a SPARC running xntp
- with the PPS support as a stratum 1 NTP time server, without
- using any timecode. The on-time epoch could be obtained
- via the NTP protocol from other NTP time servers.
-
- If any of you have any idea if this is possible, or have
- a simular setup, please email me.
