Indeed. The pool is the proper (IMO) way to use ntp for individual use &
works just fine. I've two systems w/side-by-side monitors and I can
adjust the time in either (one is always hardy, the other is test with
intrepid/whatever). I can watch the Ubuntu clocks on both and see the
change after the ntp updates/modify the clock on the test, even kill
ntpdate etc.
