Thank you for the responses.

11 seconds would be great.  How do we do it?

Harlan> the other is "what frequency are we operating at?"

Are you referring to the drift file?  I know that the lack of a drift
file slows down start
up because ntpd takes time to determine the frequency offset.  My
servers have drift
files. Is there more to it?

Thank you

Johnny
