Update to 5.7p2 based on PR 49583 by Paul B. Henson. 2015-01-20 OpenNTPD 5.7p2 * Switched the drift file from an unscaled frequency offset to ppm. The latter format is compatible with that of ntp.org. This allows easy switching between ntpd daemons * Fixed a memory leak in DNS lookups. * Added support for setting the process title on Linux and OS X. The different processes are now possible to tell apart by role in the process list. * Import NetBSD support. * Various bugfixes and refinements from the community. 2015-01-08 OpenNTPD 5.7p1 * Support for a new build infrastructure based on the LibreSSL framework. Source code is integrated directly from the OpenBSD tree with few manual changes, easing maintenance. * Removed support for several OSes pending test reports and updated portability code. * Supports the Simple Network Time Protocol version 4 as described in RFC 5905 * Added route virtualization (rdomain) support. * Added ntpctl(8), which allows for querying ntpd(8) at runtime. * Finer-grained clock adjustment via adjfreq / ntp_adjtime where available. * Improved latency on heavily-loaded machines.

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.
Initial import of openntpd-20040719p from pkgsrc-wip, contributed by Peter Postma. OpenNTPd is a free 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 is primarily developed by Henning Brauer and Alexander Guy as part of the OpenBSD Project. The portable version is made by Darren Tucker. The software and is freely useable and re-useable by everyone under a BSD license.

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.
The software is freely usable and re-usable by everyone under a BSD license.
The OpenBSD project sells CDs, T-Shirts and Posters. Sales of these items help
to fund development.
