Hello! This patch series aims at improving our NTP service. While traveling, my date wouldn't be synchronized correctly, due to my hardware clock (the one configurable through the BIOS) was more than 1000 s off the time queried from the NTP servers, and 'ntpd' was not configured by default to allow an initial correction larger than 1000 s. This patch series fixes this use case (travelling across timezones) and further the ntp-configuration record to allow specifying different types of NTP servers as well as their options.
