Raw Normal View History

Use the offset calculation that includes round trip time in the ntp collector Previously the raw time difference was used which includes the network trip time between the node and the ntp server. This makes setting alerts off the value troublesome as it depends on the latency as well as the clock offset.

response, err := ntp.Query("0.pool.ntp.org", 4)
```
