The /etc/ntp.conf file lists three servers for querying. Two of them return the time 10:54:23 while the third one shows a different time (i.e. 10:50:37). The system will use which of the return values?
  • It will use the time of the server that was queried first
  • It will use 10:54:23 since this is what the majority of servers indicate
  • It will use 10:50:37 if this is closer to the system’s current time
  • It will use an average of the time
