I think the distros shared a lot of blame for the ntp ddos attacks. The defaults were ridiculous. I want to scream every time I see `restrict default kod blah blah` without `limited`. Somewhere someone threw up that terrible restrict statement and it got copied everywhere. KOD without `limited` is useless and a good indicator the maintainer never read the docs: "If the kod flag is used in a restriction which does not have the limited flag, no KoD responses will result." As far as alternatives to the ntp reference implementation go I like Miroslav's chrony, especially for things like laptops with intermittent connectivity and power saving concerns.
