                      5: Dave
                      6: 
                      7: Here is a uuencoded, compressed tar file. The only file I've
                      8: changed is Makefile - I've included the full file rather than diffs.
                      9: There are some new files as well:
                     10: 
                     11:        xntp    shell script that starts up ntp during boot up
                     12:                (the packaging stuff creates links to it so it comes
                     13:                up at run level 2). As with all svr4 start/stop
                     14:                scripts, it takes one parameter which is either
                     15:                start or stop. It assumes that ntp.conf is in
                     16:                /etc/inet/ntp.conf (where it should be on svr4
                     17:                machines).
                     18:        prototype       describes the file contents of the package.
                     19:                        You might like to review its contents to
                     20:                        see whether you want to include any other
                     21:                        files or remove some. NB I've made the man 
                     22:                        pages go into 1m as they should on svr4.
                     23:        preinstall      runs before installation takes place. It
                     24:                        ensures that ntp is down if it is up before
                     25:                        installing a replacement package
                     26:        postinstall     starts up ntp after package installation.
                     27:        preremove       brings down ntp before removing the package.
                     28: 
                     29: You create a package using "make package". This creates a file
                     30: called xntp.pkg. To install this package, you use 
                     31: "pkgadd -d `pwd`/xntp.pkg xntp". This will start up ntp if
                     32: /etc/inet/ntp.conf exists. If you don't want the package anymore, use 
                     33: "pkgrm xntp". I have tested this on Solaris 2.4.
