ntimed is a weird project IMO, because it's not different enough from OpenNTPD: both are small NTP daemons written in C. He could've created a fork of OpenNTPD

ntimed is a weird project IMO, because it's not different enough from OpenNTPD: both are small NTP daemons written in C. He could've created a fork of OpenNTPD with more precision and without privilege separation instead.
If ntimed was written in Rust though... THAT would've been excellent.
- gpvos 12y agoOpenNTPD is only a client. ntimed is currently only a client, but is intended to grow to a complete replacement of ntpd.

Just put the following line in your /etc/ntpd.conf: listen on * See ntpd.conf(5) for all options: http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi/OpenBSD-current/man5/ntpd.conf.5?query=ntpd.conf/man5/ntpd.conf.5?query=ntpd.conf http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi/OpenBSD-current/man5/...
