I think for "non-mission-critical" requests like this, we will see a
bureaucracy problem at many major ISPs. Most are also huge phone or
cable operators, and suffer from decades of institutional overhead.
It would be a major step in the right direction if ISPs even ran NTP
servers for their own customers and publicized that they did it.
Does anybody have a list of which ISPs do that? Sounds like a good
page for the Wiki.
Mine does. But
- they are based in the UK, and were syncing to US servers rather than UK
ones
- they were syncing over an asymmetrical (satellite?) link at one time,
and therefore had a fixed 20ms (or whatever) offset!
- an "ntpq -p ntp.blueyonder.co.uk" currently gives "request timed out".
Perhaps it's now "mine did"?
