Included in this distribution of XNTP is a configuration file suitable
|
||
|
|
for use with BSDI's BSD/OS 1.1 (formerly BSD/386 1.1). On this system,
|
||
|
|
the "cc" command is GCC 1.4x rather than PCC or GCC 2.x. It is imperative
|
||
|
|
that "cc" be used since it predefines the symbol __bsdi__; if you want to
|
||
|
|
use another compiler you will need to add -D__bsdi__ to catch the various
|
||
|
|
#ifdef's required for this system.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Kinemetrics/Truetime GPS-TM/TMD driver is known to work on this system.
|
||
|
|
The GPS-805 and GOES should also work fine. Hell, they should all work fine
|
||
|
|
but it's hard to test very many locally.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Due to BNR2's strict interpretation of POSIX and XNTP's use of SIGIO, BSD/OS
|
||
|
|
can only handle one refclock per daemon. We're working this out with the
|
||
|
|
system architects.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The config file is machine/bsdi, and the following steps should be all that
|
||
|
|
are required to install and use the bits.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note that you will need GNU sed; the version supplied with BSD/OS 1.1 loops
|
||
|
|
endlessly during "make refconf". Likewise you should get GNU make, which
|
||
|
|
the instructions below assume that you have put in /usr/local/bin/gnumake.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To build the software:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
rm -f Config.local
|
||
|
|
gnumake refconf
|
||
|
|
gnumake MAKE=gnumake
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To install the software:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
gnumake install
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This will place all of the executables in /usr/local/etc. The config
|
||
|
|
file is expected to be /usr/local/etc/xntp.conf and the key file for
|
||
|
|
the optional authentication is /etc/ntp.keys.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Craft a config file and a key file, and put them in the right places.
|
||
|
|
There is information on how to do this elsewhere in the documentation,
|
||
|
|
the only thing I'll mention is that I put the drift file in
|
||
|
|
/var/log/ntp.drift, and the authdelay on my 486DX/50 system is
|
||
|
|
0.000064. Your mileage will vary, learn to use the authspeed tools
|
||
|
|
if you're going to authenticate.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the file /etc/rc.local, make sure that the invocation of ntpd is
|
||
|
|
commented out, and add an invocation of xntpd. Here's what I'm using:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
echo -n 'starting local daemons:'
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
if [ -f /etc/ntp.keys -a -f /usr/local/etc/xntp.conf ]; then
|
||
|
|
echo -n ' xntpd'; /usr/local/etc/xntpd
|
||
|
|
fi
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#XXX# echo -n ' ntpd'; /usr/libexec/ntpd -t
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
At this point, you should be good to go. Try running /usr/local/etc/xntpd and
|
||
|
|
using ntpq or xntpdc to see if things are working, then pay attention the next
|
||
|
|
time you reboot to make sure that xntpd is being invoked, and use ntpq or
|
||
|
|
xntpdc again to make sure all is well.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Enjoy!
