My question doesn't about restart during reboot.
I have machines M1,M2,N2,A3,B3. Where all have good accurate clocks.M1 is
source and
most accurate clock.
M1 stratum 1
M2, N2 stratum 2
A3,B3 Stratum 3
They are connected.
Problem here is ; i have to synchronize all machine to  1 millisecond
accuracy.
and The path they are connected is unreliable .
A optical wire is connected between machine and they are synchronize. Now ,
the wire is broken etc.
New wire is connected and a message is send. At this moment, i need to
restart the NTP (at M2...3)or
restart applicable on disconnected machine.
So what signal is handled by NTP when service stop/start/restart command is
given .
Kindly reply for answers and sugeestions.
Regards,
Ambresh
