The units are in hertz ... it's the frequency for some PC-compatible interval timer which is used at the clock interrupt (it doesn't interrupt that often ... I believe there's a counter so it's some multiple of that, but it's been a while since I've looked at it). 512 PPM of 1189712 is 609. You could start from there (add something approximately close to that). I don't recall if 512 is the maximum PPM reported by ntpd; I don't remember seeing anything higher. --Ken
