Re: [chrony-users] How to disable rate limiting

[kross@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Thanks for the clarification! Re-reading the man page, I now realize 
that the phrasing "[t]his directive enables rate limiting" indeed 
implies that it is disabled when this directive is not set (regardless 
of further directive options).

I also found that the "noclientlog" directive did not directly match the 
desire to "disable" (unnecessarily, as I now know) the rate limiting. 
But as I anyhow use the functionality of the "noclientlog" directive on 
my pool servers for performance reasons, I didn't mind too much that it 
wasn't a "clean" solution to disabling the rate limiting. But still 
happy to see the latter is taken care of in a more dedicated fashion 
already.

Kind regards,

Joachim
