17: .SH "DESCRIPTION"
18: This manual page briefly documents the \fBntpdc\fP command.
19: The
20: [= prog-name =]
21: utility program is used to query an NTP daemon about its
22: current state and to request changes in that state.
23: It uses NTP mode 7 control message formats described in the source code.
24: The program may
25: be run either in interactive mode or controlled using command line
26: arguments.
27: Extensive state and statistics information is available
28: through the
29: [= prog-name =]
30: interface.
31: In addition, nearly all the
32: configuration options which can be specified at startup using
33: ntpd's configuration file may also be specified at run time using
34: [= prog-name =] .
