I see in the following comment and #define in the source code for xntp3: /* Note that these are appropriate for a crystal time base. If your * system clock is line frequency controlled you should read the * specification for appropriate modifications. Note that the... */ .. #define CLOCK_ADJ 0 /* adjustment interval: 2**0 = 1 */ .. But on page 40 of RFC-1305 there is a table (Table 6) with the following: __________________________________________________________________ |Parameter Name Crystal Mains | |----------------------------------------------------------------| |Adjustment Interval CLOCK.ADJ 4 sec 1 sec | Which of these is incorrect, the comment, the code, or Table 6? Is a 1 second adjustment interval ok for most modern workstations? Thanks, Jim-Miller@suite.com
