Update 4.2.8p14 --> 4.2.8p15 Summary: Systems that use a CMAC algorithm in ntp.keys will not release a bit of memory on each packet that uses a CMAC keyid, eventually causing ntpd to run out of memory and fail. The CMAC cleanup from https://bugs.ntp.org/3447, part of ntp-4.2.8p11, introduced a bug whereby the CMAC data structure was no longer completely removed. MFC after: 3 days Security: NTP Bug 3661

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The \fBcalc_tickadj\fP script uses provided ntp drift file to generate optimal
|
|
tick value. Generally, ntpd can do better job if the drift value is the
|
|
smallest possible number.
|
|
.sp
|
|
The example output of
|
|
.br
|
|
.in +4
|
|
.nf
|
|
$ ./calc_tickadj
|
|
81.699 (drift)
|
|
9999 usec; 9999779 nsec
|
|
$ cat /etc/ntp/drift
|
|
-23.159
|
|
.in -4
|
|
.fi
|
|
.sp
|
|
means the following. If tick on that box is 10,000, by making the value 9999
|
|
we'll shift the box from its current drift of \-23.159 to a drift of 81.699, and
|
|
in doing so we'll speed the clock up a little every second instead of slowing
|
|
the clock down a little.
|
|
.sp
|
|
If 'tick' on that box is 10,000,000 then by setting it to 9999779 the drift
|
|
value will be somewhere around 0.0.
|
|
.sp
|
|
\fBcalc_tickadj\fP tries to determine the the tick value by using
|
|
\fBtickadj\fP program from ntp package. If this doesn't work you can specify
|
|
current tick manually on command line.
