• Why is Narwal so obsessed with NTP?

  After digging through all the DNS queries originating from my "chatty" Narwal Freo, I'm wondering why they are so obsessed with network time? Besides talking to several subdomains off of narwaltech.com, the robot is making DNS queries once every minute with ntp5.aliyun.com. And that is in addition to a couple other NTP servers at ntp.org.

Both of these blocks are to ntp.org domains which to my knowledge would not be servicing ANY DNS requests of any type. So I'm baffled why these ntp.org servers... Source: over 1 year ago
