I think this is normal, the above status codes are in hex. Bit 0 of the 1st= =20 byte tells about clock source (0=3DA 1=3DB), bit 1 of 1st byte stands for m= ode=20 status (0=3DPLL 1=3DFLL), bit 2 of 1st byte represents resolution status (0= =3Dus=20 1=3Dns) and bit 7 of the 2nd byte indicates that PLL updates are enabled.=20 status 0x2001 =3D source A, mode PLL, resolution ns, PLL updates enabled status 0x6001 =3D source A, mode FLL, resolution ns, PLL updates enabled The command 'ntpdc -c kerninfo | grep status' displays some of this status= =20 information in human-readable format. You can find a document that describes the Adaptive Hybrid Clock Discipline= =20 Algorithm at http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/database/papers/allan.pdf Cheers,=20 ch =20 =2D-=20 Christian Hiris <4711@chello.at> | OpenPGP KeyID 0x3BCA53BE=20 OpenPGP-Key at hkp://wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net and http://pgp.mit.edu --nextPart18011324.nuUiSCVA8n Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBCjks709WjGjvKU74RAijzAJ9kMa2AfFRVAptVF7UN1vGuLr+XigCeIbx5 TCZmhhD82LrkJrb6QgZh8vs= =u7Jb -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart18011324.nuUiSCVA8n--
