I use chrony and like it, but I've found the fact that it drops ntp servers whose names don't resolve really annoying, since on my laptop, I'm often not connected, and if chrony is started when unconnected, it rejects all my servers specified by DNS name. I could use hard-coded IP addresses, but I find that distasteful, so I've settled for a trivial script that restarts chrony when I bring a network connection up.
