We use NTP clock sources for a clock source on many of our physical T1 
circuits. We use an outside stratum 1 clock source for our internal 
server (stratum 2) and because we have our own server, we clock 
everything else off of it (stratum 3).

Maybe I'm not familiar enough with the internals of Asterisk to 
understand what kind of timing you're after. I assumed you were just 
after a reference clock.
