Some major changes were necessary to make xntp v3 run on the DEC Alpha
|
||
|
hardware running DEC OSF/1. All "long" and "u_long" declarations and
|
||
|
casts in the code were changed to "LONG" and "U_LONG" and a new header
|
||
|
file (include/ntp_types.h) was added. The new header file defines
|
||
|
LONG as int and U_LONG as u_int for the Alpha hardware and as long
|
||
|
and u_long for anything else. A couple of #ifs where changed in
|
||
|
ntpq and xntpdc to get the result of a signal defined correctly. The
|
||
|
Config.decosf1 file built the programs here with no problems.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I don't have a radio clock here, so none of that code has been tested.
|
||
|
I have run xntpd, xntpdc, xntpres, ntpq, ntpdate, and tickadj under
|
||
|
DEC OSF/1 v1.2-2 (BL10).

Support for NTP Version 2 is included with the current OSF/1 release. If
|
||
|
you are upgrading to NTP Version 3 with this distribution, you should not
|
||
|
use the xntpd or ntpq programs that come with the OSF/1 release. The
|
||
|
older programs should be replaced by the newer programs of the same name,
|
||
|
either in situ or via a link to a tranquil spot like /usr/local/bin. The
|
||
|
make install script in the this distribution don't work due to a silly
|
||
|
install program incompatibility, so you will need to copy the programs by
|
||
|
hand.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Don't use the setup utility to install or configure the xntpd installation,
|
||
|
as it will cheerfully clobber your painstakingly crafted ntp.conf program.
|
||
|
However, assuming you put this file in /etc/ntp.conf, you can use the
|
||
|
/sbin/init.d/xntpd script to start and stop the daemon.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This distribution compiles with nominal mumur with the stock cc compiler
|
||
|
that comes with OSF/1.
