2.6 Kernel (NUMA) and Fedora Development

[Wayne Frazee]

Certainly you can set your own configuration for that one time source
however there is no failsafe.  For both accuracy and fault tolerance
reasons, it makes sense to sync with more than one timesource, something
that Fedora has the capability but no graphical interface for.  Since the
capability is already there, it would seem rather trivial to use the same
code that sets the one to parse the file and allow users to set more than
one.

With a little more work, you can make the interface be much more useful,
with its own list of OpenAccess servers allowing you to choose.
