"pool.ntp.org" might be a better choice. If the box stays up for any
length of time, you may want to setup ntpd instead. This should be a
matter of
emerge net-misc/ntp
rc-update add ntpd default
/etc/init.d/ntpd start
under Gentoo. The default ntpd.conf points to pool.ntp.org by default
nowadays, AFAIK.
