Questions about intersection algorithm

slfmessi opened this issue · 1 comments

I am using ntp-4.2.4p7 on a linux host and ntp-4.2.5p172 on a solaris host, which have two same timer. However, I found that aftering give the two timer different time diff about 10s, ntp-4.2.4p7 will activate intersection algorithm while ntp-4.2.5p172 not. I want to know whether there are something different of intersection algorithm between the two versions, because I can't find anything about this on the Internet. For further infomation, is there any method to adjust or simply close intersection algorithm?
Thanks a lot.

The best reference is the book by Dave Mills.

The more important question is why would you want to be looking at software that is so old?
