The ntpq command can already be used to change the set of servers used
in real time. You can use ntpq to find the current set of servers. Are
you trying to create a program to present a set and allow the users to
choose some subset?

Hello to all you mighty programmers, hackers and USENET members,
I am trying to implement an API for ntpd by which the user can specify
which servers he wants his machine to update time from. The application
however uses a single .conf file. Are there any limits specified for the
addresses that can be given in the .conf file? Also could you please help
me out as to how I can read the IP addresses already present in the .conf
file and how to update these values based on the user's choice? I'm also a
novice to programming, so could you please help me out by not making your
answers too technical?
Regards,
Arpith
