If you are using my NTP pool server ntp.polyfoam.com.au, and you've hardcoded the IP address, please hardcode the new IP address (v4 and v6) or use the DNS name. The DMZ address formerly used is now being firewalled.
«Ubuntu setzt auf ntpd-rs — Rust für präzise Zeitsynchronisierung:
Ubuntu plant, ntpd-rs als Standard für die Zeitsynchronisierung einzuführen. Die Rust-Implementierung soll chrony und weitere Tools ersetzen.»
Ich bin kein @ubuntu Fanboy aber ich mag @rust und deswegen sehe ich deren Einsatz sehr positiv.

Secure time synchronization with NTS
To set the correct time on computers, usually NTP (Network Time Protocol) is used. However NTP is an insecure time synchronization protocol and allows a man-in-the-middle to shift time on an NTP client. To tackle these issues, NTS (Network Time Security) was created which aims to solve these problems. In this article I show how you can configure ntpd-rs and Chrony to use NTS servers. systemd's timesyncd does not support yet NTS, but it's currently in development so hopefully this will be […]https://blog.frehi.be/2026/03/29/secure-time-synchronization-with-nts/
Ubuntu will be adopting ntpd-rs as the default time sync client/server if all goes according to plan for release 27.04 (~2027). For most this means replacing chrony.

I am thrilled to announce the next target in our campaign to replace core system utilities with memory-safe Rust rewrites in Ubuntu. In upcoming releases, Ubuntu will be adopting ntpd-rs as the default time synchronization client and server, eventually replacing chrony, linuxptp and with any luck, gpsd for time syncing use-cases. ntpd-rs is a full-featured implementation of the Network Time Protocol (NTP), written entirely in Rust. Maintained by the Trifecta Tech Foundation as part of Project P...
I set up a GPS-reference Stratum-1 NTP server at home.
This was a neat project, but rather painful. Not sure I'd recommend it, honestly, but I learned a lot. See thread for some learnings and rantings.

La synchronisation temporelle, c'est un de ces trucs qu'on ne remarque pas quand ça fonctionne, mais qui devient vite pénible quand ce n'est pas le cas : logs décalés entre deux machines, automatisations qui partent au mauvais moment, corrélation d'événements impossible… Avoir un serveur NTP local règle tout ça d'un coup
Blogged: Introducing NtpTick: A lightweight NTP client for .NET
Over the last couple of years, I’ve spent a lot of time studying, experimenting, and learning about clocks, NTP, PTP, and time synchronization in general. It’s a fascinating area that brings together software, hardware, math, and networking – and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed going down this rabbit hole.
