The machine should be it's own server, since I only have
an ISDN dialup uplink to an ISP. Figure out, what it would
cost, to synchronize my clock this way.

Only on startup I run ntpdate and after that xntp should be
used, to have one time in the network, even if it is not
100% accurate. 98% would be enough.

I know, that it worked this way, when I installed some ntp
client software on a NT 4.0 machine (my wifes computer).

Why it doesn't work with the cisco router ? Does the cisco
perhaps want to have something more accurate ?

Can this be tweaked somehow ?
