My understanding is you really only want to sync to *one* known reliable server (or pool) because the syncing process is just that: a process which takes time to complete.
Not exactly Carl.
Well, sort of...
NTP is smart enough to pick the best server from a bunch.
Yes, if you have such a critical time sensitive application, otherwise you should conserve the traffic. And the point that I was actually focusing on was this: syncing is a process, not a one time event. You don't a) set it up b) expect the time to correct itself immediately and c) when it doesn't, start 'server shopping'. Is that clearer? ;-) Carl
