Dave,
I have stable problems using the latest Meinbeg build have to use the
old build without -M. After I stop ntpd, I run ntpdate -q to check the
drift.

OK, well I don't know what the problem might be, then. I haven't tried
these different versions on Domain Controllers.

This shouldn't be related to Domain Contoller or not. There's currently a
problem which lets ntpd trap on some machines, but we don't no yet, why.

BigHug,
can you run some program on such a machine which modifies the multimedia
timer? E.g. Quicktime does so, if it is just started. Does the clock sync
settle if you keep such a program running continuously?
