<p>This chapter describes the OS specific part of OTP that relates
to the Network Time Protocol (XNTP).
</p>
<section>
<title>XNTP for Sunos5</title>
<p>XNTP maintains a Unix system time-of-day which conforms with
the Internet standard time servers. XNTP is a complete
implementation of the Network Time Protocol, version 3
specification as defined in RFC 1305.
</p>
<p>XNTP for use in an <em>embedded system running Sunos5</em> is
delivered with OTP. The XNTP is delivered as a separate
<c>tar</c> file which also includes extensive documentation and
installation instructions.
</p>
<p>The following section of the introductory documentation is
included in the distribution:

<p>The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is used to synchronize the
time of a computer client or server to another server or
reference time source, such as a radio or satellite receiver
or modem. It provides client accuracies typically within a
millisecond on LANs and up to a few tens of milliseconds on
WANs relative to a primary server synchronized to Coordinated
Universal Time (UTC) via a Global Positioning Service (GPS)
receiver, for example. Typical NTP configurations utilize
multiple redundant servers and diverse network paths, in order
to achieve high accuracy and reliability. ...</p>

<p>The XNTP software is supplied without charge under the
conditions set forth in the Copyright Notice provided within the
distribution.
