As others have noted, you should not use S1/2 servers.

Instead use the NTP POOL!

brian@honeypot:~$ host us.pool.ntp.org
us.pool.ntp.org has address 209.126.142.251
us.pool.ntp.org has address 209.177.2.10
us.pool.ntp.org has address 24.34.79.42
us.pool.ntp.org has address 65.110.41.44
us.pool.ntp.org has address 65.125.233.206
us.pool.ntp.org has address 66.115.136.4
us.pool.ntp.org has address 66.187.233.4
us.pool.ntp.org has address 69.17.92.121
us.pool.ntp.org has address 69.57.148.52
us.pool.ntp.org has address 146.186.218.60
us.pool.ntp.org has address 204.17.42.199
us.pool.ntp.org has address 204.17.42.202
us.pool.ntp.org has address 204.87.183.6
us.pool.ntp.org has address 207.188.193.83
us.pool.ntp.org has address 209.15.197.136

The generic form of DNS name is cc.pool.ntp.org where cc is
the two letter country code. Not all CC's exist, so double
check before using (the US has many as you can see).

See http://www.pool.ntp.org/ for more info including
config examples.

HTH!
