What are folks using these days for smaller organizations, that need to dole out time from an internal source?
If "internal" means a local NTP server independent of external network resources, the other responses are apposite. If "internal" means a stratum 2 NTP server dependent upon other servers on the network, and if you don't need accuracy in single-digit millisecond or better range, we've done well with an older ex-Windows machine that now runs FreeBSD and vanilla NTPD, and is now a pool server at ntp.org. ± six milliseconds, cost approaches the cube root of zero. mdr -- Sometimes half-ass is exactly the right amount of ass. -- Wonderella
