10.3 Beta 1 - OK.
i've compiled and run ntp, also used debian ntp using same setup (after
hacking out debain file install changes), so let me explain what works
for me...
a while back around slackware 7 or so i compiled and used ntpdate ntpd,
i enjoyed using it a while but ran into two caveats. my isp signal
attacked me shut down all my server ports (ie, 80). also ...
i had issues with it:
(1) used more bandwidth than i needed for my needs was used
rdate is great. also i was aware that if a college were
to allow malicous students use the timekeeping device, it
could be used to "hack into my server"
(2) the colleges that support it are often down or never set clock and
are advertising the wrong time - exactly what author begged people
not to do
(3) still waiting for my expensive radio clock to arrive !

## you can use script to decide which servers in your ip list are up
which are responding fastest, use the top 3 in the file, as per
directions dont list them all list only nearby ones
## note, use ntpdate first to get close or ntpd may not work
# ntpdate $(cat /etc/ntp.conf | sed -n -e '/^server/{s/^server //;p;}')
# ntpd -c /etc/ntp.conf -f /etc/host/ntp.drift
## try ntpq but remember the docs said not to do certain things as
## they are a nuisance to real timekeeping devices
