I'm also wondering, how many people are using the ntp.mcast.net messages to sync their clocks? what about providing ntp to your customers via the "ntp broadcast" command on serial links, etc..?

I have used NTP mcast for some time, most of my gear sets it's time this way. I run mcast on the "inside" network, ie customer and internet edge interfaces don't run it. There is no customer interest in mcast, here. Plus it is allot more to consider if I let customers join my mcast network. Dr. Mills suggested looking at manycast so clients select the closest NTP server (I have 1 strat1 and 3 strat2). -- James H.
