I am a little confused about this group... Is it really only about ntpd as written by Dr. Mills? I believed it is in the "protocols" hierarchy and is about the "ntp" protocol. When somebody asks a question about a Windows system, where a native NTP implementation is available that can be debugged with a simple commandline program (w32tm), the response to any question invariably is to "install ntpd". It may have some advantages, but is it really necessary for everyone? Wouldn't it be better to help everyone with the software they are using, instead to first suggest them to convert? It almost seems like a religious group. Most people try to convert the world to Mills' NTPD, and then there is the dissident who tries to push Chrony in every thread. Not really necessary, I think. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
