is a big list of ntp servers of stratum 2 (and possibly 3?) servers.
Running the ntpd service is probably the best way to do it. 'service
ntpd start' should be all that is need. If you clock is more than a
minute or two out to begin with, you may need to issue a 'ntpd -q -g'.

Ok. I'm looking at a client that needs to keep their server time close
as reasonably possible (within a minute) of the actual time of day.
I've installed the RPM for NTP and I'm looking for tips on what the
simplest setup should be, ie:<br>
What server(s) should I be using for sync?<br>
Should I just run it from a cron every 20 minutes or so?<br>
<br>
thx.<br>
