Why could you not?
It is just a case of adding the correct lines in /etc/ntp.conf
e.g.
Code:
server ntp.mydomain prefer
server 000.09.128.4
server 000.09.128.2

ok, in this case in fact the NTP server is actually a product called "Symmetricom NTS-200 Network Time Server"
with an IP address. The procedure will be the same?

I pick up my time from one of our main cisco routers: I asked the network guru since I knew which router I wanted the time from ( the one he uses to synchronyse all the swiches...) he finally mounted a domain NTP server ( with 4 "servers" responding...).
That is why in my example you had ntp.my-domain as preferred.. the others being unix servers which had strange behaviour from time to time...

Just give it a try, dont make things more complicated than needed! my example is all I put in ntp.conf and since I have no issues (years now...)
