hm, I can't say I have noticed this as being a problem where I've
used it, are there any scenarios where this is a showstopper?
Non-support for auth is a concern, lack of NTPv4 protocol support is another.
Base ntpd also include SNTP which is a lightweight NTPv3 client.
I suspect if you can't be reasonably sure about the integrity of your
network traffic you have other problems anyway... one can run ntpd -s to
get a similar function to ntpdate/sntp.
But again, for 99% of installs as a client, auth and/or ntpv4 doesn't
matter and much like sendmail/dma, one can always install ntp.org from
ports if they require authentication (I've never seen it used).
