This configuration file contains configuration commands described on the pages listed above. However a client can discover remote servers and configure them automatically. This makes it possible to deploy a fleet of workstations without specifying configuration details specific to the local environment. </p> <p>The <code>ntpd</code> program normally operates continuously while adjusting the system time and frequency, but in some cases this might not be practical. With the <code>-q</code> option <code>ntpd</code> operates as in continuous mode, but exits just after setting the clock for the first time. Most applications will probably want to specify the <code>iburst</code> option with the <code>server</code> command. With this option an initial volley of messages is exchanged to groom the data and set the clock in about ten seconds’ time. If nothing is heard after a few minutes’ time, the daemon times out and exits without setting the clock. </p> <table class="menu" border="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr><td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="#ntpd-Invocation" accesskey="1">ntpd Invocation</a>:</td><td> </td><td align="left" valign="top"> </td></tr> <tr><td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="#Usage" accesskey="2">Usage</a>:</td><td> </td><td align="left" valign="top"> </td></tr> </table> <hr> <a name="ntpd-Invocation"></a> <div class="header"> <p> Next: <a href="#Usage" accesskey="n" rel="next">Usage</a>, Previous: <a href="#ntpd-Description" accesskey="p" rel="prev">ntpd Description</a>, Up: <a href="#ntpd-Description" accesskey="u" rel="up">ntpd Description</a> </p> </div> <a name="Invoking-ntpd"></a> <h3 class="section">1.1 Invoking ntpd</h3> <a name="index-ntpd"></a> <a name="index-NTP-daemon-program"></a> <p>The <code>ntpd</code> utility is an operating system daemon which sets and maintains the system time of day in synchronism with Internet standard time servers. It is a complete implementation of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) version 4, as defined by RFC-5905, but also retains compatibility with version 3, as defined by RFC-1305, and versions 1 and 2, as defined by RFC-1059 and RFC-1119, respectively. </p> <p>The <code>ntpd</code> utility does most computations in 64-bit floating point arithmetic and does relatively clumsy 64-bit fixed point operations only when necessary to preserve the ultimate precision, about 232 picoseconds. While the ultimate precision is not achievable with ordinary workstations and networks of today, it may be required with future gigahertz CPU clocks and gigabit LANs. </p> <p>Ordinarily, <code>ntpd</code> reads the <code>ntp.conf(5)</code> configuration file at startup time in order to determine the synchronization sources and operating modes. It is also possible to specify a working, although limited, configuration entirely on the command line, obviating the need for a configuration file. This may be particularly useful when the local host is to be configured as a broadcast/multicast client, with all peers being determined by listening to broadcasts at run time. </p> <p>If NetInfo support is built into <code>ntpd</code> then <code>ntpd</code> will attempt to read its configuration from the NetInfo if the default <code>ntp.conf(5)</code> file cannot be read and no file is specified by the <code>-c</code> option. </p> <p>Various internal <code>ntpd</code> variables can be displayed and configuration options altered while the <code>ntpd</code> is running using the <code>ntpq(1ntpqmdoc)</code> and <code>ntpdc(1ntpdcmdoc)</code> utility programs. </p> <p>When <code>ntpd</code> starts it looks at the value of <code>umask(2)</code>, and if zero <code>ntpd</code> will set the <code>umask(2)</code> to 022. </p> <p>This section was generated by <strong>AutoGen</strong>, using the <code>agtexi-cmd</code> template and the option descriptions for the <code>ntpd</code> program.
