-The Network Time Protocol (NTP) Version 4 Distribution
-
-This is a distribution of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) Version 4
-sources and documentation. NTP can be used by Unix, DEC VMS and
-Microsoft Windows NT platforms to synchronize the computer clock to
-external sources of time, such as other NTP time servers or a local
-radio clock. The daemon included in this distribution can operate as a
-server, a client, or a relay from a set of servers to a dependent client
-population on a local net. This distribution includes the daemon itself,
-plus utility programs and supporting documentation.
-
-You are welcome to the lot, with due consideration of the copyright
-information in the COPYRIGHT file. You are also invited to contribute
-bugfixes and drivers for new and exotic radios, telephones and sundials.
-This distribution is normally available by anonymous ftp as the
-compressed tar archive ntp-<version>.tar.Z in the pub/ntp directory on
-louie.udel.edu and <version> is the version number. The current version
-number can be found on the NTP web page <http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~ntp>.
-
-A considerable amount of documentation, including build instructions,
-configuration advice, program usage and miscellaneous information is
-included in the ./html directory of this distribution. The intended
-access method is using a web browser such as netscape; however, the
-pages have been formatted so that viewing with an ordinary text editor
-is practical. Start the browser on the ./html/index.htm page, which
-contains additional instructions and hotlinks to the remaining pages.
-Some hotlinks for the larger documents, such as related technical
-memoranda, reports and papers, lead to other web sites where this
-information is stashed. We apologize for the inconvenience this may
-cause for users without Internet and World Wide Web access.
-
-If you are an old hand and just want to build the distribution, you
-might find the INSTALL file a useful shortcut. A descriptive list of all
-files in the base directory of this distribution is in the README file.
-A list of "significant" changes for the release is in the NEWS file.
-
-If you're interested in helping us test pre-release versions of ntpd,
-please look in <ftp://louie.udel.edu/pub/ntp/testing/>.
