I have now installed the latest dev-snapshot.
Multicast works exactly as with 4.1.x.

ntpq -p:
     remote           refid      st t when poll reach   delay   offset  jitter
==============================================================================
 LOCAL(0)        LOCAL(0)         6 l   11   64  377    0.000    0.000   0.015
*192.168.1.9     192.168.100.5    2 m   16   64  377    0.015  -51.568  19.452
 
But the Time on the 192.168.100.5 and also on 192.168.1.9 is absolutely
correct, the time on this machine ist NOT.

It has the wrong time 600 sec in the future, i can see it via date and the
machine also delivers the wrong time, it is in 600 sec since 24 hours.

Also i cant see any syslog messages since yesterday.

I think this cant be an Linux Problem if it not only doesnt set the LOCAL
clock, it too delivers the wrong time.
