5# This file is intended to be both a usable default, and a Quick-Start
6# Guide. The directives and options listed here are not at all complete.
7# A great deal of additional documentation, including links to FAQS and
8# other guides, may be found on the official NTP web site, in particular

37# Some of the more common keywords are:
38#   ignore      Deny packets of all kinds.
39#   kod         Send "kiss-o'-death" packets if clients exceed rate
40#               limits.
41#   nomodify    Deny attempts to modify the state of the server via
42#               ntpq or ntpdc queries.
43#   noquery     Deny all ntpq and ntpdc queries.  Does not affect time
44#               synchronisation.
45#   nopeer      Prevent establishing an new peer association.
46#               Does not affect preconfigured peer associations.
47#               Does not affect client/server time synchronisation.
48#   noserve     Deny all time synchronisation.  Does not affect ntpq or
49#               ntpdc queries.
50#   notrap      Deny the trap subset of the ntpdc control message protocol.
51#   notrust     Deny packets that are not cryptographically authenticated.
52#
53# By default, either deny everything, or allow client/server time exchange
54# but deny configuration changes, queries, and peer associations that were not
55# explicitly configured.
56# (Uncomment one of the following "restrict default" lines.)
57#
58#restrict default ignore
59restrict default kod nopeer noquery
60
61# Fewer restrictions for the local subnet.
62# (Uncomment and adjust as appropriate.)

72# Hereafter should be "server" or "peer" statements to configure other
73# hosts to exchange NTP packets with.
74#
75# See <http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Support/DesigningYourNTPNetwork>
76# and <http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Support/SelectingOffsiteNTPServers>
77# for advice.
78#
79# Peers should be selected in such a way that the network path to them
80# is short, uncongested, and symmetric (that is, the series of links
81# and routers used to get to the peer is the same one that the peer
82# uses to get back).  The best place to start looking for NTP peers for
83# your system is within your own network, or at your Internet Service
84# Provider (ISP).
85#
86# Ideally, you should select at least three other systems to talk NTP
87# with, for an "what I tell you three times is true" effect.
88#
89# A "restrict" line for each configured peer or server might be necessary,
90# if the "restrict default" settings are very restrictive.  As a courtesy
91# to configured peers and servers, consider allowing them to query.

97# The pool.ntp.org project coordinates public time servers provided by
98# volunteers.  See <http://www.pool.ntp.org>.  The *.netbsd.pool.ntp.org
99# servers are intended to be used by default on NetBSD hosts, but
100# servers that are closer to you are likely to be better.  Consider
101# using servers specific to your country, a nearby country, or your
102# continent.
103#
104# The pool.ntp.org project needs more volunteers! The only criteria to
105# join are a nailed-up connection and a static IP address. For details,
106# see the web page:
