Indeed, originally the NIST version of the leap second file was made publicly available via FTP access to each of the NIST time servers. However, according to a note on https://www.nist.gov/pml/time-and-frequency-division/services/internet-time-service-its FTP access to the time servers has been phased out, and all of the public files including the leap second file have been moved to these public FTP sites: ftp://ftp.nist.gov/pub/time (directory listing) ftp://ftp.nist.gov/pub/time/leap-seconds.list (leap second file) and ftp://ftp.boulder.nist.gov/pub/time (directory listing) ftp://ftp.boulder.nist.gov/pub/time/leap-seconds.list (leap second file) Martin _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
