Introdction to NTP

The NTP package contains a client and server to keep the time synchronized between various computers over a network. This package is the official reference implementation of the NTP protocol.

Dependencies

Optional

• OpenSSL

Additional Configuration Options

--with-crypto: Enables OpenSSL support.

Non-Multilib

Silc-toolkit provides a md5.h that is incompatible with NTP. Add the following entry to config.cache to make sure the header isn't used:

echo "ac_cv_header_md5_h=no" > config.cache

Compile the package:

./configure --prefix=/usr --bindir=/usr/sbin \
    --sysconfdir=/etc --cache-file=config.cache &&
make

Install the package

make install
install -dv -m755 /usr/share/doc/ntp-4.2.8p10 &&
cp -Rv html /usr/share/doc/ntp-4.2.8p10/

Multilib

This package does not provide any libraries so only one installation is needed.

32Bit

Silc-toolkit provides a md5.h that is incompatible with NTP. Add the following entry to config.cache to make sure the header isn't used:

echo "ac_cv_header_md5_h=no" > config.cache

Compile the package:

CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" USE_ARCH=32 ./configure  --prefix=/usr \
--bindir=/usr/sbin --sysconfdir=/etc --cache-file=config.cache &&
make

Install the package

make install &&
install -dv -m755 /usr/share/doc/ntp-4.2.8p10 &&
cp -Rv html /usr/share/doc/ntp-4.2.8p10/

N32

Silc-toolkit provides a md5.h that is incompatible with NTP. Add the following entry to config.cache to make sure the header isn't used:

echo "ac_cv_header_md5_h=no" > config.cache

Compile the package:

CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" USE_ARCH=n32 ./configure  --prefix=/usr \
--bindir=/usr/sbin --sysconfdir=/etc --cache-file=config.cache &&
make

Install the package

make install &&
install -dv -m755 /usr/share/doc/ntp-4.2.8p10 &&
cp -Rv html /usr/share/doc/ntp-4.2.8p10/

64Bit

Silc-toolkit provides a md5.h that is incompatible with NTP. Add the following entry to config.cache to make sure the header isn't used:

echo "ac_cv_header_md5_h=no" > config.cache

Compile the package:

CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" USE_ARCH=64 ./configure  --prefix=/usr \
    --bindir=/usr/sbin --sysconfdir=/etc --cache-file=config.cache &&
make

Install the package

make install &&
install -dv -m755 /usr/share/doc/ntp-4.2.8p10 &&
cp -Rv html /usr/share/doc/ntp-4.2.8p10/

Configuring

Bootscript

Install the init script provided by the blfs-bootscripts package:

make install-ntp
ln -v -sf ../init.d/setclock /etc/rc.d/rc0.d/K46setclock &&
ln -v -sf ../init.d/setclock /etc/rc.d/rc6.d/K46setclock
