for a full-time in the internet host, I get very close
synchronization:

[herrold@swampfox herrold]$ ntpq -p -n
     remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter
==============================================================================
-204.87.183.6 207.200.81.113 2 u 869 1024 377 86.661 -15.479 79.362

The rightmost three columns are in mSec. This is done with
this file:

[herrold@swampfox herrold]$ grep -v ^# /etc/ntp.conf | grep -v ^$
restrict 127.0.0.1
restrict 206.21.107.147
restrict 208.21.108.186
restrict 10.0.0.0 mask 255.0.0.0 notrust nomodify notrap
server 204.87.183.6
server 216.27.190.202
server 128.4.40.12
server 198.147.37.140
server 140.221.9.20
driftfile /etc/ntp/drift
broadcastdelay 0.008

keys /etc/ntp/keys
[herrold@swampfox herrold]$

This is a dual homed host, and does not offer timeservices to
others (the first three lines are interfaces on the host; the
10.0.0.0 carrying the mask lists the IP range of other units
permitted to query it -- as none from 10.0.0.0 can reach this
unit, it functionally does not offer queriable ntp services)
