I'm sure its administrators have followed the common practice of not running disparate services on a single machine. (There are probably more people in the world who know that the three campus name servers are bitsy, strawb, and w20ns, than know that bitsy was once an NTP server.) There are numerous public and semi-public NTP servers at MIT. Bitsy is no longer one of them. I would not be shocked to be told that bitsy was once Jeff Schiller's personal workstation (presumably back in the RT/VAXstation era). -GAWollman -- Garrett A.
