The key types A,S,N and M are defined in the NTP 4.1.2 ntp-keygen document: http://doc.ntp.org/4.1.2/genkeys.htm. They have been removed in NTP 4.2.0. There is nothing in the release note about removing those keys. So it seems that only MD5, SHA and SHA1 symmetric key types are supported in 4.2.6p3; right?
My understanding of the Authentication document is that the "crypto digest name" in the ntp.conf specifies the digest algorithm only for Autokey authentication, not for symmetric authentication. Is that right? Should the digest name in the "crypto digest name" match with the type of certificate scheme used when generating keys with ntp-keygen -c? Thanks Joe.
