Another alternative is the pooled servers at ntp.org: au.pool.ntp.org nz.pool.ntp.org us.pool.ntp.org etc. Unfortunately, the AU servers are sorely lacking: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~]dig au.pool.ntp.org +short 202.74.170.194 NZ has 4, the US has 15 ... we are pathetic. Have a look at http://twiki.ntp.org/bin/view/Servers/WebHome for more information.
