It is basic and has at least some inaccuracies. I skimmed it and found: "The NTP protocol was originally developed for the LINUX operating system. " Kids these days.... so much history lost. For those under 60 revolutions of the sun: NTP and related protocols far pre-date Linux. Linux is a relatively late arriving implementation of Unix. The vast majority of intellectual property behind Linux was from prior variants of Unix; Linux was just a free, unencumbered version that was widely adopted. -- Fletcher Kittredge GWI 207-602-1134 www.gwi.net
