<title>SNTP</title>
<desc><p><strong>Technical contact</strong>: <a
href="mailto:stenn@ntp.org">Harlan Stenn</a> (NTP Project)</p>
<p>This task is to create an SNTP implementation; this program will
be a "reference" implementation of SNTP, based on the latest
NTPv4 document. SNTP is first and foremost a lightweight NTP
client. It will use GNU AutoGen (like the rest of the NTP
programs) for its options processing. While an SNTP
implementation may talk directly to a reference clock, the core
requirement for this effort is to be a simple client
implementation. We have an existing implementation based on an
older specification. It contains functionality that is obsolete.
You could write a ground-up implementation or take the existing
one and hack it in to shape, or some combination of the two.</p>
