<para>The following configuration file defines various <acronym>NTP</acronym>
|

|
|
servers to use with the primary server designated with the prefer tag. It also
|
||
|
|
creates a drift file where <command>ntpd</command> stores the frequency
|
||
|
|
offset. Since the documentation included with the package is sparse, visit the NTP website at

<ulink url="http://www.ntp.org/"/> for more information.</para>

<para>There are two options. Option one is to use run <command>ntpd</command>
|

continiously and allow it to synchronize the time in a gradual manner. The other

option is to run <command>ntpd</command> periodically (using cron)
|

and update the time each time <command>ntpd</command> is scheduled.</para>
