I'm assuming ntpd tries to synchronize the Windows time once every few
minutes, after a few polling intervals. If the determined time
difference then exceeds 128 ms (which is probably the case on this
machine) then the system time is stepped, all filter entries are
discarded, and "reach" is set back to 0.
There should be related log entries in the application event log, if you
have set the log level high enough.
Maybe you should add
logconfig =all
to your ntp.conf file if this isn't the case. Please not =all needs to
be typed as a single word.
