I've webbed up what I've gleaned so far:

“ntpq -p” output
http://nlug.ml1.co.uk/2012/01/ntpq-p-output/831

Corrections and further details welcomed. Can anyone comment to clear up
the “?”s and answer whether the jitter value is the range or a +/- value?


Fill in the gaps?

Hope of interest,

Cheers,
Martin
