Aloha,
The FreeBSD group has been sending out info on what to do and telling
everyone to use military, or private instutions that are know to you.
I had one old server hit. The only one I used the 1. 2. 3. pool ntp on.
I manually use ntp.nasa.gov ( California) and sundial.columbia.edu (NYC)
and ntp.hawaii.edu (HNL)
Brian, could I use lntpl.hawaii.edu ?
Thanks:
