>From dig: ;; ANSWER SECTION: 0.fedora.pool.ntp.org. 150 IN A 74.82.59.150 0.fedora.pool.ntp.org. 150 IN A 104.131.53.252 0.fedora.pool.ntp.org. 150 IN A 45.127.112.2 0.fedora.pool.ntp.org. 150 IN A 208.53.158.34 The 150 is the TTL. Of course, a caching DNS server might drop them sooner. Then an earlier reload might get a different answer, but if all goes well, that's a good and polite time to wait. -- These are my opinions.
