The cheap (in money) do-it-yourself solution is a Garmin GPS-18LVC. If you have a budget for the project the Meinberg devices are really really excellent. If you have a low or no budget then a Soekris or PC Engines box with FreeBSD makes a very nice "ntp appliance". ntp1.us.grundclock.com and ntp2.us.grundclock.com are (old and slow) such boxes, but they keep time really well and can serve a lot of clients considering the no-noise, 3 watt, no moving parts magic. http://www.pool.ntp.org/scores/207.171.7.151 http://www.pool.ntp.org/scores/207.171.7.152 (Those two IPs are the ones I have in the pool -- the boxes are using CARP to make sure those IPs are always up even if I have to reboot one of the boxes). - ask _______________________________________________ timekeepers mailing list [email protected] https://fortytwo.ch/mailman/cgi-bin/listinfo/timekeepers
