Guy,

Now I'm really confused, or thats not the right explanation The routers that
were coming up with the insane message both had a peering relationship with an
NTP server. That means both routers time should have had almost exactly the
same time, because they were getting their time from the same update source.
Doing a sh ntp assoc on both showed that the server was properly configured.

  Sane: the time looks correct. Insane: the time looks wrong. The client's
  understanding of that difference lies in, among other things, a definite
limit
  as to how "wrong" its own time is.

    The only thing I don't get is the "sane" part. I've been looking for the
    meaning of "sane" and "insane". Does "insane" indicate a certain type of
    error? Or does it mean that something (could be anything) is configured
    wrong?
