Where would I get a list of ntpd servers so that I can run 

    ntpdate_enable="YES"
    ntpdate_flags="-b -t10 -u ntp1.example.com ntp2.example.com"

Or

    xntpd_enable="YES"
    xntpd_flags="-g -p /var/run/ntpd.pid"

    If you boot your machine often, you may want to use ntpdate. It
    synces on startup only.

    ntpdate_enable="YES"
    ntpdate_flags="-b -t10 -u ntp1.example.com ntp2.example.com"

    If your machine stays up for extended periods of time, you would
    prefer ntpd, which synces every 64 - 1024 seconds.

    xntpd_enable="YES"
    xntpd_flags="-g -p /var/run/ntpd.pid"

    /etc/ntp.conf:
    server ntp1.example.com
    server ntp2.example.com
    server ntp3.example.com
