NTP 4.2.4p5 (Harlan Stenn <stenn@ntp.org>, 2008/08/17)
Focus: Minor Bugfixes
This release fixes a number of Windows-specific ntpd bugs and
platform-independent ntpdate bugs. A logging bugfix has been applied
to the ONCORE driver.
The "dynamic" keyword and is now obsolete and deferred binding to local
interfaces is the new default. The minimum time restriction for the
interface update interval has been dropped.
A number of minor build system and documentation fixes are included.
This is a recommended upgrade for Windows.

stops accessing certain buffers immediately after they were freed, fixes
a problem with non-command-line specification of -6, and allows the loopback

an error in NTP packet handling on Windows that could lead to

NTP 4.2.4 (Harlan Stenn <stenn@ntp.org>, 2006/12/31)
Focus: enhancements and bug fixes.
Dynamic interface rescanning was added to simplify the use of ntpd in
conjunction with DHCP. GNU AutoGen is used for its command-line options
processing. Separate PPS devices are supported for PARSE refclocks, MD5
signatures are now provided for the release files. Drivers have been
added for some new ref-clocks and have been removed for some older
ref-clocks. This release also includes other improvements, documentation
and bug fixes.
K&R C is no longer supported as of NTP-4.2.4. We are now aiming for ANSI
C support.
