Hi all,

I have my xntpd setup in a very standard way with 
a simple ntp.conf file such as:

server 7.160.1.254
broadcast 128.1.2.24
driftfile /etc/ntp.drift

When I run ntptrace at the command line I get:

localhost, Stratum 16... stuff stuff....
cisco.the.domain.com, Stratum 5... stuff stuff....
(The names have been changed to protect the innocent:) )

Then I get a:
127.127.7.1: *TIMEOUT*

What is that?  Does it need correcting?  If not, how
do I cut it off?

Thanks
George 
Hanover, Md.
