The ntp directory

This directory and its subdirectories contain the various distributions
of the Network Time Protocol (NTP), together with related auxilliary
programs, documentation and strange stuff. You are welcome to the lot,
with due consideration of the COPYRIGHT files stashed in the
distributions. You are also invited to contribute bugfixes and drivers
for new and exotic radios, telephones and sundials.

For anonymous FTP retrieval, the base directory pub/ntp contains the
distributions and related stuff, including:

README		This file

doc/		various bits of documentation

hardware/	Various harware-specific things

ntp3/		The (old) NTP3 distribution

ntp4/		The NTP4 distribution

sim/		Various simulation packages

software/	Various software bits.

The doc subdirectory includes a number of compressed files containing
papers, rfcs and technical reports on NTP and related topics. Those with
names ending in *.ps.Z are in PostScript, while the others are in ASCII.
When the same document is displayed with *.ps.Z and *.txt.Z extension,
the latter version is an ASCII-greppable file that may not violate the
Principle of Least Astonishment with respect to the former version;
however, much is lost in translation. Note: PostScript and ASCII files
for miscellaneous reports on computer network time synchronization have
been relocated to World Wide Web home pages

dts1.txt.Z, dts2.txt.Z Compressed ASCII files containing unpublished
                message digests comparing NTP and the Digital Time
                Synchronization Service (DTSS). Note: this is an
                informal discussion and should not be quoted or
                excerpted, even with attribution.

dts3.ps.Z, dts3.txt.Z Compressed PostScript and ASCII files for an
                unpublished technical memorandum comparing NTP and the
                Digital Time Synchronization Service (DTSS). Note: this
                memorandum is intended for professional use only and
                should not be cited or excerpted without the consent of
                the author.

faq.Z           Compressed ASCII file containing frequently asked
                questions about NTP, its installation, configuration and
                management. Refreshed at irregular intervals.

info1.txt.Z, info2.txt.Z Compressed ASCII files containing useful hints
                and kinks on setting up NTP service

jaguar.txt.Z    Compressed ASCII file containing a job description for a
                Maya high priest taken from the Book of Chillum Balum.
                Useful for after-dinner speakers and rally cheerleaders.

security.ps.Z   Compressed PostScript file containing a draft of a
                report by Matt Bishop discussing security issues in NTP.
                It should not be cited or excerpted without the
                permission of the author.

The depredated directory contains previous versions of the NTP protocol
implementations. There use is strongly discouraged in new installations.
There is no guarantee that these versions will be supported in future.

ntp.3.4         Subdirectory containing the NTP Version 1 daemon for
                Unix written by Michael Petry and Louis Mamakos of the
                University of Maryland. Not recommended for new
                installations.

xntp2           Subdirectory containing the NTP Version 2 daemon for
                Unix written by Dennis Fergusson of the University of
                Toronto. Not recoommended for new installations.

xntp3.3wx.tar.Z Compressed tar archive containing a prior version of
                xntp3 intended for program development purposes only.
                This version works for most machines, except the Cray.

xntp3.3wy.tar.Z Compressed tar archive containing a prior version of
                xntp3 intended for program development purposes only.
                This version works for the Cray.
