10: .SH SYNOPSIS
11: .B ntp-keygen
12: .\" Mixture of short (flag) options and long options
13: .RB [ \-\fIflag\fP " [\fIvalue\fP]]... [" \--\fIopt-name\fP " [[=| ]\fIvalue\fP]]..."
14: .PP
15: All arguments must be options.
16: .SH "DESCRIPTION"
17: This manual page briefly documents the \fBntp-keygen\fP command.
18: If there is no new host key, look for an existing one.
19: If one is not found, create it.

174: If any of these are directories, then the file \fI.ntprc\fP
175: is searched for within those directories.
