I just read your message from the archives: http://fortytwo.ch/mailman/pipermail/timekeepers/2007/002854.html It's an interesting approach. We use Cisco and Sonicwall routers and firewalls, so I will have to see what our options are in this regard. My fear is those devices won't be flexible enough to do that redirection while still *not* redirecting the NTP queries my own NTP servers use. I may be stuck with DNS redirection, as setting up a new Linux/BSD based router or proxy is a non-starter from a budget and complexity standpoint. -- RPM ========================= All problems can be solved by diplomacy, but violence and treachery are equally effective, and more fun. -Anonymous _______________________________________________ timekeepers mailing list [email protected] https://fortytwo.ch/mailman/cgi-bin/listinfo/timekeepers
