These - programs do not include the cryptographic routines - themselves, so are free of U.S. export restrictions. - -build A script to build the distribution in A.`config.guess` - subdirectory (more or less). - -clockstuff Directory containing sources for miscellaneous programs - to test certain auxiliary programs used with some kernel - configurations, together with a program to calculate - propagation delays for use with radio clocks and - national time dissemination services such as WWV/WWVH, - WWVB and CHU. - -conf Directory containing a motley collection of - configuration files for various systems. For example only. - -config.guess Script used to identify the machine architecture and - operating system. - -config.h.in Configuration file generated automatically from - configure.in.

The - documentation is in the form of HTML files suitable for - browsing and contains links to additional documentation - at various web sites.

Operates like rdate, but much more accurate. - -ntpq Directory containing sources for a utility program to - query local and remote NTP peers for state variables and - related timekeeping information. This program conforms - to Appendix A of the NTP Version 3 Specification RFC 1305. - -ntptrace Directory containing sources for a utility program that - can be used to reveal the chain of NTP peers from a - designated peer to the primary server at the root of the - timekeeping subnet. - -parse Directory containing files belonging to the generic - parse reference clock driver. For reasonably simple - clocks it is possible to get away with about 3-4Kb of - code. additionally the SunOS 4.x/Solaris 5.3 streams - module for parse squats here. - -patches Directory containing patches already applied to this - distribution. These are included for record and to help - in possible porting problems. - -scripts Directory containing scripts to build the configuration - files in this directory and then the makefiles used in - various dependent directories. the subdirectories - monitoring and support hold various perl and shell - scripts for visualizing synchronization and daemon startup. - -stamp.h.in Configuration file generated automatically from configure.in. - Do not edit. - -util Directory containing sources for various utility and - testing programs. - -David L.
