I guess so, based on your experience. I'm using the same binaries on ntp.davehart.net, running ws2003 on x86 as well. The libeay32.dll is from the prebuilt 0.9.8j package for Windows: 2009-01-07 14:40 1,097,728 libeay32.dll I'd like to understand what's going wrong for you. With suitable privilege, ntpd runs at realtime priority and if it gets into a CPU-bound knot, it is expected it would make the rest of the machine unusuable as you experienced. Typically, it uses very little CPU and it appears you've uncovered a bug. You might try running the debug binary interactively from an administrator command prompt with tracing enabled (by adding -D2 to the command line, for example). If it reproduces, the repeating output or the last few lines before the hang might finger the culprit.
