I didn't realize that, so I RTFM'ed. http://www.pool.ntp.org/ What you're supposed to do is add a 3 or 4 servers to the configuration: 0.pool.ntp.org, 1.pool.ntp... The number hosts do seem to return different lists. ('host 0.pool.ntp.org | sort' and 'host 1.pool.ntp.org | sort' have different IPs at the top and bottom. Without the digits, they don't.) -- Glenn English ghe@slsware.com
