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/>. - -David L.
