The other day I was wondering what type of type servers everyone donates to the pool. Wouldn’t it be nice to ‘show-off’ our respective servers? Or is this a bit too sensitive a piece of information (for a possible attacker)? What are your thoughts on this matter?

Transitioned from standard FreeBSD ntpd (version $ANCIENT.0), running in a VM on the Windows box that also has email and apache, to an R Pi CM5 in the IO case, with the stock ntpsec load. Set it to 25 MbS because volume surges can cause the provider’s CPE router to fall over. pool.ntp.org: Stati…
