My Create3 robot querying Chrony running on a Raspberry Pi 5, is reporting:


  *   Feb 18 15:18:46 Create3-WaLi user.notice ntpd: ntpd: reply from 192.168.186.3: delay 0.003797 is too high, ignoring


every 3 to 15 minutes.

Is this normal?  Can it be fixed?

My Create3 ntp config:

# Use RPi5 as preferred server
# Minpoll 2^4 = 16s
# Maxpoll 2^6 = 64s
server 192.168.186.3 prefer iburst minpoll 4 maxpoll 6
