Hello,
Now, I have an isolated network with two computers.
One is a server and the other is a client.
Thie is what I get from ntpq -p command.
remote refig st t when poll reach delay
offset jitter
=====================================================
*LOCAL(0) .LOCL. 10 l 28 64 377 0.000 0.000
0.002
remote refig st t when poll reach delay
offset jitter
========================================================
LAPTOP LOCAL(0) 11 u 1 64 377 0.361
-4.095 14.028
I see 'offset' values varies from around -100 ~ -5.
If offset values are nonzero, then it means the time between two
computers are not the same at the last time of the synch, right?
Let's assume that I saved time sequences from both computers.
Can I say that the server time 'to' is really same as the client time
'to-4.095'. (From the above case... assuming that I saved offset
periodically)
Or, should I consider delay as well???
I found 'k9' on the web which makes sure that the clock on PC is
synchronised.
If I install k9, then it fixes the error(offset) real-time??? Or, am I
completely wrong?
