Hi, nice or not, I rather decide myself when my machiens contanct what service. And if somene else makes these kind of decisions for me I prefer being at least asked if it is OK. One problem with Mircrosoft is that they 'assume' the user doesn't want/need to know about such things like a time service - I disagre strongly. Erwin --- Eric Brown wrote:
Geez, the paranoia here is *rampant*. It's a fricking NTP service. Put something else in there, if you want. I have my XP machines set to contact my Linux machine.
Personally, I think that Microsoft is being incredibly nice by providing an NTP server that can withstand several million service requests per hour.
