NTP _rocks_. Simply, it works. I'm only on a dialup, which is only connected
about half the day, and yet, it still manages to sync my clock perfectly.
And, on the odd occasion it breaks, I kill it, run ntpdate, start the
daemon, and within 5 minutes I'm in-sync again?
Is this bad because it doesn't talk to LDAP, have a Gnome front-end, or have
Pants in it? Of course not. I stand by my point, NTP rocks.
