Hi Daryl,

We're still looking into this.  Yes, notifyme without the -o option is a
good way to determine the latencies on a remote machine, so your
interpretation is correct.  

However, when I was sampling motherlode yesterday afternoon, about 19Z -
20Z, everything was on time.  And, I'm not seeing any problems in the
stats files.  At what times did you take your samples?

If I find out anything else I'll let you know.

Anne
