Don't know if that's better, but it's more work in any case. CNAMEing
would just work. Main problem with CNAME is that a lot of DNS lookups
are necessary - but with ntp, it's just one lookup when ntpd starts
(contrary to MX pointing to CNAME which are evaluated basically for
every single mail).
(btw, dns layout has changed - last part of
