Hi David,
I have some very time critical application which i assume may affect while i sync my existing server with new GPS clock. My most worry part is that if there is async with server and clock, then they may affect the other application or clock may reject the sync request with existing server. Hence i would like to sync in a such way that it will gradually sync the clock rather than adruptly.
Hence is thare any way to sync slowly?
Regards,
Vijay

I suspect one or both servers are free running.

This will result in a step, not a slew.

The reason that he can get to the point of diminishing returns quickly
is that they nature of the platform means that point has a relatively
low time quality.
