OpenNTPD with OpenSSL support

OpenNTPD daemon with OpenSSL implementation & flexible configurability

See also my blog post on fjordtek.com.

Added features

  • Implemented OpenSSL support. Either LibreSSL or OpenSSL can be used.

  • Many previously hardcoded values are now configurable via conf file.

  • Implement UDP & TCP port selection for multiple options.

  • Implement custom user agent string support for constraints.

  • Improved log entries interpretation.

  • Updated manual.
