./net/openntpd, Free implementation of the Network Time Protocol

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 6.8p1, Package name: openntpd-6.8p1, Maintainer: henson

OpenNTPD is a FREE, easy to use implementation of the Network Time Protocol. It
provides the ability to sync the local clock to remote NTP servers and can act
as NTP server itself, redistributing the local clock.

OpenNTPD was primarily developed by Henning Brauer as part of the OpenBSD
Project and gets released as a base component of OpenBSD every six months.

The portable version is maintained by Brent Cook and is mirrored on Github and
available as periodic tarball releases. Contributions are welcome to both the
OpenNTPD core and the portable build framework.

Log message:
net/openntpd: update to 6.8p1

6.8p1 - New release based on OpenBSD 6.8

	* The ntpd daemon now gets and sets the clock in a secure way when booting
	  even when a battery-backed clock is absent.

	* Improvements in DNS resolving and constraints checking, especially during
	  startup. Unreliable NTP peers are removed from the pool and DNS resolving
	  is repeated to add replacements.

	* Improved reliability and security of TLS constraint checking.

	* Improved logging of failure cases.

	* Prevent the case of multiple ntpds running at once by checking presence
	  of the local control socket.

	* TLS certificates are now searched in TLS_CA_CERT_FILE.

	* The default ntpd.conf configuration file now uses 9.9.9.9 and
	  2620:fe::fe, in addition to google.com, when performing time constraint
	  validation.

	* Improved handling unsynched mode when there is no replies from an NTP
	  server, such as when there are network connectivity issues.

	* To build OpenNTPD with time constraint support, libtls from LibreSSL
	  3.2.2 or later are recommended. LibreSSL 3.2.2 and later include a
	  self-contained libtls, which allows OpenNTPD to work with constraints
	  even on systems even where libcrypto and libssl are not from LibreSSL.

6.2p3 - Bug fixes

	* Fixed build on OS X

6.2p2 - Bug fixes

	* Fixed support for 'query from' and clarified usage.

6.2p1 - New release based on OpenBSD 6.2

	* Added option "query from <ip>" to ntpd.conf, to specify a local IP
	  address for outgoing NTP queries.

6.1p1 - New release based on OpenBSD 6.1

	* Quieted warnings about constraint connection retries.

	* Implemented fork+exec for ntpd child processes.

	* Added imsg inter-process reliability fixes.

	* Fixed memory leaks and reduced heap memory usage.

	* Numerous logging improvements and additions.

	* Added macOS 10.12 getentropy support.

	* Fixed arc4random blacklist use native implementations where
	  possible.

net/openntpd: make the rc script set the pidfile.

Seems the daemon writes no pid file unless explicitly told where.

Remove unneeded patch after update to 6.0p1
   2016-06-15 07:40:21 by Thomas Klausner | Files touched by this commit (2)
Log message:
Updated openntpd to 6.0p1.

Changes since OpenNTPD 5.9p1
============================

    * Fixed a link failure on older Linux distributions and a build
      failure on FreeBSD.
    * Set MOD_MAXERROR to avoid unsynced time status when using
      ntp_adjtime.
    * Fixed HTTP Timestamp header parsing to use strptime in a more
      portable fashion.
    * Hardened TLS for ntpd constraints, enabling server name
      verification. Thanks to Luis M. Merino.

Note that HTTPS TLS constraints are currently disabled in pkgsrc pending
evaluation of how best to deal with libressl.
