Thank you for your reply. I should clarify my question: We have already prepared our reference clock driver which uses the address "127.127.47.0". 47 is not used in ntp-4.2.8p8. Now we want to commit our reference clock driver to ntp community so that ntp will provide built-in support to our reference clock just like Bancomm or any other reference clock listed in ntp.h header file. Is it possible? _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
