<P>
|
|
NTP 4.0.x does not run on SCO Unix prior to version 3.2.5.0.0. If you
|
|
need NTP on an older SCO Unix system and don't mind to modify your
|
|
kernel, use 3.5.91 which has patches for SCO Unix 3.2.4.x. Apply the
|
|
kernel modifications as described in
|
|
<A HREF="http://www.echelon.nl/en/ntp/sco3-recipe.html">XNTP on SCO
|
|
3.2.4.2</A>.

|
<H2>Compiling NTP</H2>
|
|
<P>
|
|
Delete the old SCO supplied NTP programs using the "custom"
|
|
utility. Run the NTP configure program with CFLAGS="-b elf -K
|
|
<I>processor-type</I>" for best results.
|
|
|
|
<H2>Running NTP</H2>
|
|
<P>
|
|
Run "tickadj -As" after every reboot to set the variables
|
|
"clock_drift" and "track_rtc" to the right values.
|
|
<P>
|
|
Run "ntpd" with a high negative nice-value, i.e.
|
|
"nice --19 ntpd" for best results.
|
|
|
|

|
|
<P>
|
|
More information on the way SCO Unix and NTP interact can be found in
|
|
<A HREF="http://www.echelon.nl/en/ntp/ntp-on-sco.html">NTP on SCO Unix</A>,
|
|
which includes links to precompiled versions of NTP.
