Hi all,
I have been running the ntp client on a Linux platform for some time and
have not seen any problems.
I recently run into a strange behavior where our communication software
failed on some critical timeouts.
After some investigation we found out the the system time suddenly made a
jump with 200ms.
Normally NTP will smoothly adjust the time without any noticeable jumps, and
then this sudden step :o)
My question is: How do I prevent NTP clock adjustments from jumping. OK, it
will take some time to adjust but that's OK.
Regards
Lars
