[comp.sys.hp] netdate

Does anyone have the equivalent of the "netdate" program for BSD
systems running under HPUX 6.5?  Is anyone aware of such in the
public domain?

Thanks,

Netdate is available on simtel20 in the directory pd2:<unix-c.networks>.
I picked up a copy, and with a few small changes, got it to work on HP-UX.
Most of the changes involve the different utmp structure, and the different
location of the wtmp file.  Also, HP-UX logs time changes in /etc/utmp as
well as /etc/wtmp.

If you want a copy of netdate with my changes, I can send it to you.  However,
***HP HAT ON***
I cannot guarentee that what I send you will work, nor do I have time to
offer help if you run into problems.  This is completely unsupported,
etc., etc., etc.
***HP HAT OFF***

If you want netdate.shar, let me know, and I will send you a copy.
