Actually, this may work just fine when you use pool.ntp.org as the name (omitting the country code). The NTP pool has logic to derive the country from the source address of the DNS query and give pool members from that country. It works very well here. I have heard that some people have problems because of strange registration of their IP ranges or because they use funny DNS relays, but you can always try. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
