Are you sure that's right
It should be, t_1, the origin timestamp, is the time according to the client at which the request was sent. t_2, the receive timestamp, is the time according to the server at which the request was received. t_3, the transmit timestamp, is the time according to the server at which the reply was sent. t_4, the destination timestamp, is the time according to the client at which the reply was received. The reference timestamp isn't really used for anything, and the destination timestamp obviously can't be part of the packet. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@ntpsec.org http://lists.ntpsec.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
