Blake: Just to make sure I've got this down, listing a device as a "peer" in the ntp.conf file will create a situation where both devices are saying, "I know what time it is" and splitting the difference? Whereas when you list a device as a "server", it's using that as the authority on the correct time?
Example: -- # peer 192.168.1.1 iburst peer 192.168.1.2 iburst # server ntp.colby.edu minpoll 6 maxpoll 10 iburst server bonehed.lcs.mit.edu minpoll 6 maxpoll 10 iburst On 2/17/2014 10:28 AM, Blake Dunlap wrote: > Peer means it considers the other side an equal and they will mutually skew > time together.
