Have you tried the Windows/Meinberg installation? It includes configuring the "pool" server lines for the user's specified region. One which is pre-installed by default probably doesn't have the region optimisation. Good to hear that Linux has something, though. I must admit that a simple primer for Windows would be welcome, as I have seen NTP increasingly adopted by that community.
