My thoughts exactly.... and the reason that SuSE doesn't turn it on by default is because it *does* put a load on all of the time servers (especially by people who don't know how to operate NTPD) and you are *supposed* to ask permission or at least notify the owner of a time server that you are going to access it.
I think the primary reason is that SuSE doesn't know if the system will have a permanent network access (I don't, for instance). Then, of course, we, as users, have to choose which servers to take the time from. - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFDo2BQtTMYHG2NR9URAkW7AJ0fH/erVX+Ax0PwFwI4gJozbUy4tACfda7T lFM0sBvEErILuREggnrcJ20= =s3vz -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
