6e16f6
-will report the synchronisation state of the NTP daemon
6e16f6
+will report the synchronisation state of the NTP daemon (ntpd)
6e16f6
 running on the local machine.  If the local system is found to be 
6e16f6
 synchronised to a reference time source,  
6e16f6
 .I ntpstat
6e16f6
 will report the approximate time accuracy.
6e16f6
 
6e16f6
+When the synchronised state is reported, it means the system clock was updated
6e16f6
+at some point.  There is no timeout for this state.  It will stay there even
6e16f6
+when the source becomes unreachable and there are no other sources available.
6e16f6
+However, the reported accuracy will be slowly increasing, in the default ntpd
6e16f6
+configuration by 15 microseconds per second.
