BTW, you might want to add these lines (from LINT) to your kernel config if you haven't already: ##################################################################### # POSIX P1003.1B # Real time extensions added int the 1993 Posix # P1003_1B: Infrastructure # _KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING: Build in _POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING # _KPOSIX_VERSION: Version kernel is built for options "P1003_1B" options "_KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING" options "_KPOSIX_VERSION=199309L" Current versions of ntpd use these features if they're available. I think "_KPOSIX_VERSION=199309L" is the default, so that one probably isn't strictly necessary. > Ntpd is the "official" code line now - the "x" line is considered deprecated > by the official maintainers, so if you're going to support the ntpd line in > the base system the other(s) should probably be removed entirely. I'm sure we'll get there eventually. Things move at a stately pace in -stable. :-) John -- John Polstra jdp@polstra.com John D. Polstra & Co., Inc.
