Zitat von Ask Bjørn Hansen <[email protected]>:
My best (eh, only...) guess is that some firewall software does the PTR queries. I can't think of a scenario where an NTP client would bother. I am surprised this is so (relatively) common though. I will add a note on the join.html page about it.
That was my idea also that some lazy admins define a rule in the firewall with xx.pool.ntp.org as destination and that the firewall does PTR lookups to verify the target...
Not very smart, but obviously very common. Regards Andreas _______________________________________________ pool mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/pool
