hardware and software can do this very well indeed. Others; e.g. Windows
and Linux do not do nearly so well.
Linux can do fine, assuming the hardware is good, and the
OS/software configuration is good. More recent versions of Linux
have tended to have some kernel issues that require rebuilding with
different options, if you want to be able to keep good time. But
once that is done, you should be okay.
Unfortunately, Windows does not give you such an option, and
unless the server is pretty much totally unloaded and dedicated to
running nothing but NTP, you are likely to suffer some accuracy
problems.
