No conf or management, means that you can't fix issues that they never thought of, several years into the products life? e.g. The recent attention to SSL & noquery, abuseable features? You can't do "no conf file fiddling, no management" and keyed; unless they are all keyed the same, or keyed to a serial number (or something). I'd prefer keyed manycast over multicast. keys ".../etc/ntp.keys" # e.g. contains: 123 M YOUR_MD5_KEY trustedkey 123 manycastserver 224.0.1.1 manycastclient 224.0.1.1 key 123 preempt How do you do LAN restrict statements without conf or management? or do you need to SSH into it and can't get a query from the LAN? e.g. restrict -4 default limited kod nomodify notrap nopeer noquery restrict 127.0.0.1 restrict -6 default limited kod nomodify notrap nopeer noquery restrict ::1 restrict 224.0.1.1 mask 255.255.255.255 nomodify restrict 192.168.0.0 mask 255.255.255.0 nomodify restrict source nomodify -- E-Mail Sent to this address <blackl...@anitech-systems.com> will be added to the BlackLists. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
