>Description:

There is no way to actually enable authentication within NTP without
hand-editing /etc/ntp.conf.  There is no way to create an NTP key file
using the CLI.

>How-To-Repeat:

	

>Fix:
	
Add the following to the DDL:
   authenticate;
   key <number> type <type> value <value>;
and make the appropriate syntactic sugar happen in xntpd.
