Windows 2019 time service - sincronizing to best of three
Haven't run into any of them yet but I certainly would not use them again. Many others to choose from.
also report the broken ones here.

Looks like the better connection is going to win.
The Windows Time service synchronizes time between computers within the hierarchy, with the most accurate reference clocks at the top. If more than one time source is configured on a computer, Windows Time uses NTP algorithms to select the best time source from the configured sources based on the computer's ability to synchronize with that time source.

Dave Patrick yeah, it does look like the fastest responder wins. Not exactly the best logic to be following. I haven't found any way to improve the situation either. I'll keep digging and post something here if I find a solution.
I'd think we would always want the better connection to win.

- eh?
A node which responds faster but which is wrong is not better than a slower responding one which is correct.Haven't run into any of them yet but I certainly would not use them again. Many others to choose from.
