Polling the pool servers and offering yourself as a server to the entire world are quite different things. Ntp should listen on the LAN by default but there is no reason for it to listen on the LAN by default. If you want to put it on the Internet as an open timeserver it would be a one-line config change. -- John Hasler -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
