So not use a stratum one server unless you have permission from the
owner of that server.
Stratum one are totally unnecessary unless you really really need
microsecond accuracy in your timing.
pool.ntp.org is the best address to use. It is a grouping of many thousands of
servers all of whom have given permission to have their meachines used
as public servers. When you do a dns request on pool.ntp.org you will
get one of those thousands of servers randomly.
