1README file for directory ./conf of the NTP Version 4 distribution

3This directory contains example run-time configuration files for the
4NTP Version 4 daemon ntpd. These files illustrate some of the more
5obtuse configurations you may run into. They are not likely to do
6anything good if run on machines other than their native spot, so don't
7just blindly copy something and put it up. Additional information can
8be found in the ./doc directory of the base directory.

13The files Config.* are used to generate fullblown binaries suitable for
14distribution with the systems shown as suffix. While this can result
15in some degree of useless code, the degree is small compared to the
16size of the baseline code. The files *.conf are representative NTP
17run-time configuration files, which normally live in /etc/ntp.conf.
| 10Included also are example public key and symmetric key files produced
11by the ntp-genkeys program with names prefixed by ntpkey. These are
12ordinarily kept in /usr/local/etc and used by the Autokey scheme. See
13the authopt.htm pnd genkeys.htm ages for further information.
