It would be useful to have multiple servers listed.
Here is a machine, over in Australia.
ntpq> peers
remote refid st t when poll reach delay

==============================================================================
*europium.canoni 193.79.237.14 2 u 49 64 377 331.811 -207.01 36.624
The impact of the significant delay and jitter is that ntp will prefer
to step the time rather than slew it.
This means that I get dovecot (and other things) complaining about time
moving backwards (http://wiki.dovecot.org/TimeMovedBackwards) fairly
regularly.
It would be useful if Canonical could have a second, or third, machine
in a different data centre also configured to provide NTP service and
then have the default configuration updated to reduce the occurance of
this problem.
Thanks,
Anand
