John,
Ntp server is flagged as "insane" if the root dispersion value in the "show
ntp ass detail" is in excess of 1000 ms. Insane generally means it failed the
sanity check.
Can you tell us more about your topology and also if you are using a windows
system as an NTP server.
i wasnt sure if i sent my last email ......thought i should send this again.
regards,
Joel Amao
