It's unclear to me what exactly you're asking, so I'll give various information which may help: No NTPsec ntpsnmpd has shipped in a released version, so the Debian package doesn't do anything with it currently, because it doesn't exist. The ntp package (NTP Classic) does not ship any ntpsnmpd. It explicitly configures with --without-ntpsnmpd. It does ship a documentation file for it, presumably for lack of special-casing that. If ntpsnmpd is experimental and there is no precedent from NTP Classic, my first inclination is to not bother shipping it at all, for now. That just punts the problem to the future, though, when it's not marked experimental. >From the "d" at the end of the name, I assume ntpsnmpd has to run as a daemon, as opposed to being invoked as a script by snmpd. Off the top of my head, I'd probably ship it in a separate package. I assume most people using ntpd will not want ntpsnmpd. If that's the route I plan to go, then I'll probably do it sooner, rather than later, as adding new binary package names requires extra review (which can take a long time). That way, we start the clock on ntpsec-snmp (or whatever) while it is still experimental. -- Richard _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@ntpsec.org http://lists.ntpsec.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
