If you donnot have a reference clock and your internet provider has no ntp-server running, you can use 'pool.ntp.org' or a localized variant like (for The Netherlands) nl.pool.ntp.org. See http:/www.pool.ntp.org/ for details.

btw: best NOT use 2 ntp-servers, if you need more than one, use 3 of them. With pool.ntp.org, you can use 0.pool.ntp.org, 1.pool.ntp.org and 2.pool.ntp.org (and localized: 0.nl.pool.ntp.org and so on).

If you have more than a couple of machines to sync, best to setup 1 (or 3) local ntp servers and have others sync to them.

You can use `sam` to configure ntp, or just put the next lines in /etc/ntp.conf:

server 0.nl.pool.ntp.org
server 1.nl.pool.ntp.org
server 2.nl.pool.ntp.org

Oops, the lines where for The Netherlands! Be sure to use your localized servers or:

server 0.pool.ntp.org
server 1.pool.ntp.org
server 2.pool.ntp.org

(this will give you a server from anywhere over the world...)
