Folks,

All patches received as of 0500Z 8 January have been incorporated in the
distribution xntp3.tar.Z on louie.udel.edu. The patches have mostly to
do with portability things; however, there are a few that affect the
1-pps feature with Sun SPARCstations. With a good, jitterless source
such as a GPS receiver (this leaves WWVB and WWV receivers in the dust),
the residual jitter is down in the 10-microsecond range. I also had
to add another digit of precision to the ntpq billboards, since our
DECstation 5000s were showing mostly zeros in the delay field. Modern
workstations on FDDI rings bring a new dimension to timekeeping.
