I've had this happen a few times. I cron'd a job to run weekly (since I
hardly ever reboot my machine except in the case of a kernel update)...

Subject: [TriLUG] ntp.pool servers dropping out

I get my ntp from ntp.pool, where I sync against 3 randomly chosen ntp
servers. I had expected that once I'd started ntpd that I would keep syching
against the same servers till I rebooted the machine, but I find that
servers disappear one at a time (I guess maybe loose one every month or two,
and ntpq shows that I haven't contacted that server for 10days or so).
Eventually I have to restart ntpd and get a fresh batch of ntp servers.

Is this normal?

Thanks Joe
