NTP daemon
The NTP daemon reads its configuration from a file named ntp.conf. The ntp.conf file contains
at least one or more lines starting with the keyword
server . Each of those lines specify one
reference time source, that is, time server, which can be either another computer on the
network, or a clock connected to the local computer.
Reference time sources are specified using IP addresses, or host names which can be
resolved by a name server. NTP uses the pseudo IP address 127.127.1.0 to access its own
system clock, also known as the local clock. You must not mix this IP address with 127.0.0.1,
which is the IP address of the local host, that is the computer's loopback interface. The local
clock will be used as a fallback resource if no other time source is available. That is why the
system does not allow you to remove the local clock.
