I just found this information out this morning when I did a
fresh install of Lenny and couldn’t find ntpdate. I think my heart
skipped a beat. # If you use the testing distribution,
please note that ntp has been # removed from it because of a license issue¹. You should
be able to # install the version from unstable², though. Thanks for those links! I appreciate it. This morning I kinda fell into a panic when I couldn’t
find ntpd and so I did some Google searching. It seems that people are
suggesting a move to OpenNTPD. I found this link about it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenNTPD. I understand the licensing issues and all, but I really
really need to have the information provided by `ntpq –p`. Time is very
important at my job. Does anyone know if OpenNTPD can provide this information?
I guess what I should be asking is: should I make a move to OpenNTPD or some other
NTP service? Or should I just install the deb files from Sid and go on like
nothing happened? Any information or comments are welcome. Thanks! Chris Stackpole |
