Don't use a single server off the pool, use several. And don't be so
"polite" as to use servers from Spain only, use nearby countries too. My
config uses these:
server pool.ntp.org
server es.pool.ntp.org
server fr.pool.ntp.org
server ch.pool.ntp.org
server uk.pool.ntp.org
server pool.ntp.org
server pool.ntp.org
server pool.ntp.org
server pool.ntp.org
server es.pool.ntp.org
server es.pool.ntp.org
server uk.pool.ntp.org
server fr.pool.ntp.org
server ch.pool.ntp.org
server ch.pool.ntp.org
server ch.pool.ntp.org
server ch.pool.ntp.org
Don't worry if it seems a lot. The program compares them and chooses the
best one. Don't do the choosing yourself, programs are made to automate
things and take the chores on themselves ;-)
