Hi Michael,

indeed, among others (e.g. the DESY ntp hosts) some German ntp pool
servers are added to /opt/perfsonar_ps/toolkit/etc/ntp_known_servers
here. Back at the time this workaround was implemented, European ntp
servers were quite underrepresented in that list ...

Does it mean, as soon as we remove these pool servers from this
file, /etc/ntp.conf remains untouched on updates?

Thanks,
Andreas
