As I read, only two specific servers provide this -- ut1-wwv.nist.gov for example, is well labeled too. Its not clear if its part of the standard round-robin but the wording gives me the impression that it is not.
- toast0 5y agoI wouldn't expect anyone to unintentionally use these two servers. But traditional ntp also publishes time, so it would be easy to propigate. Since it's not identified as an alternate time scheme on the wire, there's no way for downstream ntpds to know and refuse ut1. Falseticker checks help, but don't eliminate the possibility of following the wrong clock.
