That's the magic of tz database for timezones and NIST leap-second file for leap seconds. The code stays same from year to year, but as politics changes timezones or IERS announces leapseconds, you just make sure you load the new tz file and leap-seconds file. Re-writing and re-testing code every

I used the distribution of ntp provided in the Angstrom repository. I believe there is a version of Debian available for the Beaglebone Black and that too will have ntp in it's repository. cheers, Graham ve3gtc On 2014-05-10 00:32, Brian Lloyd wrote: On Friday, May 9, 2014, nuts
