I see that there's 2 time servers, timed and xntpd, with the latter seeming to be more accurate and robust. It also looks like there's a myriad of config options for xntpd. Would someone be kind enough to send me a part of their /etc/sysconfig to show startup switches and /etc/ntp.conf (if needed) along with any setup wisdom. I think I need just a basic master server type of setup.
