Re: [chrony-users] GPS stratum

Hi!

When I do chronyc sources the GPS is presented as a stratum 0 server,
shouldnt it say 1, or have I misunderstood something?

~ # chronyc sources
210 Number of sources = 1
MS Name/IP address         Stratum Poll Reach LastRx Last sample
===============================================================================
#* GPS                           0   4   377    21  -6811us[-9719us]
+/-  253ms
