Not necessarily. I have seen some systems that have a poor clock that
just can't keep the clock in sync with NTP. I have one laptop and a
server in particular (both are Dells, hmmm) that within a week get
several minutes out of sync. I have other systems configured
identically that keep perfect time. On those two systems I have cron
periodically stop NTP, run ntpdate against an NTP server, then restart NTP.
I use to run something called Chrony intead of NTP on the laptop and it
was able to keep the clock in sync.
