[ntp:hackers] D-Links NTP server vandalism

[todd glassey]

Gee Tim - you are right - only its this group that is trying to make up
policy on the spot. NTP access per the Government's is Anonymous. No access
logging is kept and the US Government accepts and supports that only talk to
Dr. Levine if you dont believe me.

The real quesiton is what the NTP Software Development Consortia for  lack
of a better term has to say about the operations of the Global NTP Servers.
