Annotation of embedaddon/ntp/html/hints/decosf1, revision 1.1

1.1     ! misho       1: Some major changes were necessary to make xntp v3 run on the DEC Alpha
        !             2: hardware running DEC OSF/1.  All "long" and "u_long" declarations and
        !             3: casts in the code were changed to "LONG" and "U_LONG" and a new header
        !             4: file (include/ntp_types.h) was added.  The new header file defines
        !             5: LONG as int and U_LONG as u_int for the Alpha hardware and as long
        !             6: and u_long for anything else.  A couple of #ifs where changed in
        !             7: ntpq and xntpdc to get the result of a signal defined correctly.  The
        !             8: Config.decosf1 file built the programs here with no problems.
        !             9: 
        !            10: I don't have a radio clock here, so none of that code has been tested.
        !            11: I have run xntpd, xntpdc, xntpres, ntpq, ntpdate, and tickadj under
        !            12: DEC OSF/1 v1.2-2 (BL10).

        !            18: 
        !            19: Support for NTP Version 2 is included with the current OSF/1 release. If
        !            20: you are upgrading to NTP Version 3 with this distribution, you should not
        !            21: use the xntpd or ntpq programs that come with the OSF/1 release. The
        !            22: older programs should be replaced by the newer programs of the same name,
        !            23: either in situ or via a link to a tranquil spot like /usr/local/bin. The
        !            24: make install script in the this distribution don't work due to a silly
        !            25: install program incompatibility, so you will need to copy the programs by
        !            26: hand.
        !            27: 
        !            28: Don't use the setup utility to install or configure the xntpd installation,
        !            29: as it will cheerfully clobber your painstakingly crafted ntp.conf program.
        !            30: However, assuming you put this file in /etc/ntp.conf, you can use the
        !            31: /sbin/init.d/xntpd script to start and stop the daemon.
        !            32: 
        !            33: This distribution compiles with nominal mumur with the stock cc compiler
        !            34: that comes with OSF/1.
