For the list: netbsd 5.0's ntpd looks to be 4.2.4p6 (gleaned from source).

My ntp.conf file has the following set up: [...] I'm using approximately the following on netbsd-4.0 with a NMEA GPS emitting GPGGA sentences: server 127.127.20.1 mode 2 prefer fudge 127.127.20.1 flag3 1 server 127.127.22.1 fudge 127.127.22.1 flag3 1 refid GPS NetBSD 4.0's ntpd is too old to support GPZDA. A quick reading of the source for netbsd 5.0's ntpd suggests no improvement in this department. Even if your ntpd supports it, you'll need to replace the "mode 2" I use above with a "mode 8". > I have a couple questions regarding NMEA PPS.

Do I always need to specify flag1 1 since I need > PPS ? You can have a kernel with PPS_SYNC where ntpd doesn't use it. Just drop the "flag3 1" options from the nmea and pps drivers. I spent some time experimenting myself to come up with what I'm currently using, and wasn't about to reboot to do it :) _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
