I've added this bug to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TechnicalBoardAgenda for the next meeting, which is tomorrow, 25 Jan at 1500 UTC. The issues seem pretty clear from the comments, so I think we can discuss it regardless of who shows up. Folks who are interested in this issue are encouraged to attend, but I don't think we need to block on someone stepping forward to represent at the meeting. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to ntp in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/104525 Title: default ntp.conf should use pool.ntp.org servers -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Thanks for subscribing the Technical Board to this bug. Please add discussion of the default NTP Servers to the agenda for the next Technical Board meeting that you are able to attend, and we will discuss it with you there.

[Bug 104525] Re: default ntp.conf should use pool.ntp.org servers
/src/time/ntp-servers-list.c from the gnome-system-tools package also needs to be patched. Currently the time-admin config tool hard codes the ntp servers (seems like a list of stratum 0 servers). Minimally the ubuntu.pool.ntp.og servers should be added, but Ideally no servers should be hard-coded. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to ntp in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/104525 Title: default ntp.conf should use pool.ntp.org servers -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 104525] Re: default ntp.conf should use pool.ntp.org servers
I got this answer today: Sorry about the late response. I really wanted someone from the ubuntu project to set it up -- but I guess that's not forthcoming, so I approved the zone anyway and we'll see what happens. And in another email: Your vendor pool zone ubuntu has been setup. The hostnames are below. They will be active within a few hours. 0.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org 1.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org 2.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org 3.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org Please subscribe to the (announce-only, very low traffic) ntppool-vendors list at Google Groups. We recommend everyone in your organization involved with this is subscribed there. http://groups.google.com/group/ntppool-vendors If you are a commercial organization/product/company consider contributing back to the pool so we can keep the service sustainable even with the commercial usage: http://www.pool.ntp.org/vendors/contribute.html If you do not, you seriously diminish the chances that we can continue to offer this service to you. Kind regards, Ask Bjoern Hansen So we just have to change that in ntp.conf. I guess it could greatly simplify the GUI, too... I think it could be a good idea to put a note in the conf file to recommend people to join the pool. Maybe ntp.ubuntu.com could be included? Finally, the developer of the pool mentioned wishing a contact from the Ubuntu project to be involved… who should be contacted? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to ntp in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/104525 Title: default ntp.conf should use pool.ntp.org servers -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

See if you can contact someone from the Canonical server team.

[Bug 104525] Re: default ntp.conf should use pool.ntp.org servers
I fully agree with comment 6 by Perry E. Metzger. Switching to ntp pool should not be a security issue as bad servers are automatically filtered from the pool. Additionally, bad servers are detected by the NTP algorithm if enough servers are selected (they are called falsetickers, see http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Support/SelectingOffsiteNTPServers#Section_5.3.3.). 4 servers should be enough for most cases. -- default ntp.conf should use pool.ntp.org servers https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/104525 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to ntp in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

[Bug 104525] Re: default ntp.conf should use pool.ntp.org servers
FWIW, pool.ntp.org does geolocation nowadays, so it's not necessary to use the regional zones. Which is good, cuz it would be pretty complicated: Some don't have enough servers, or even have none at all, so you need to fall back to nearby countries or the continental zone. -- default ntp.conf should use pool.ntp.org servers https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/104525 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to ntp in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

I've unsubscribed from the bug report. It could have been fixed in a few minutes one way or another at any time over the last few years but no one did, which is a sad commentary on the management of the project.
