25.5.3 Use of minservers Attribute with Systems on Point-to-Point
Lines
If you are using DTS on a system that connects to a LAN through a point-to-point WAN
link, the solitary system never has more than one local server available. The
recommended minservers attribute setting for such a system is 3. If the system is
configured as a clerk, it does not have any local servers and must query three global
servers to synchronize. If the system is configured as a server, it must query two global
servers to synchronize.
25.5.4 The maxinaccuracy Attribute
The maxinaccuracy attribute specifies the greatest allowable bound on your system’s
inaccuracy before DTS causes the system to synchronize. When the system exceeds the
