well.. not many news here..

customer is ringing again, as log files are full of messages and they
wonder why, althought, as you can see, synchronisation is good.

I just noticed today taht one of the internet server was seen stratum 5,
and the other one startum 2 as usual. 

The "intranet" server is still stratum 3 for the moment, don't know if this
will be regulated automatically later by ntp or not.


One other thing : a few days ago, the router to the Internet was done. 
For another reason, they booted their own ntp server, but the boot hung
just during nftp startup, as there were no access to the internet ntp 
servers due to the router failure.

I thought taht it would continue in background ala NFS, but they had to ^C
for the boot to go on ! What do you think of that ?
I found no option to avoid this behaviour.

Thanks
Pascal
