I've played with a Lantronix single port server and a Digi 16 port
server with no problems for simple COM port emulation. But I wonder if
they would work well with an NTP server. Has anyone tested that? Is
the network delay a problem due to either amount of delay or variation
in the delay?

I've tried one serial-USB converter for NTP. The box passed the DCD line,
which was essential to get the PPS signal through. Performance was not as
good as a direct connection, but better than LAN sync alone. See:

I haven't tried an Ethernet connected terminal server - I would hope it
was better than USB, but I don't know.
Cheers,
David
