I am trying to get to know SNTP by doing some Winsock programming. In
particular, I am using
getaddrinfo("pool.ntp.org", "123", &hints, &gaires);
where hints has been set up to define a socket type of SOCK_DGRAM and
family of AF_INET. As expected, the Internet address returned in
*gaires does change from time to time. But it seems that it often
returns the same value if I call it again after a short time. But if
I wait a minute or two then I get a different address. What is the
rotation mechanism and why doesn't it give me a new address every
time?
