Has anybody ported xntp to non-BSD systems? I'm mostly having a problem
writing a driver for the Kinemetrics TrueTime GOES clock. (This is my
first attempt at working on a driver/daemon type program). SGI's version
of Unix (Irix) is SVR3 with most of BSD-4.3 as extensions. Of course I'm
having problems with the "missing" parts. The TrueTime clock sends out a
continuous 1pps data stream, but SIGIO isn't sent from the serial ports...
Has anybody generated a version of xntpd that doesn't use SIGIO, or
written a driver for the TrueTime clock that they's be willing to send
patches to me? I'd really like outside confirmation about my approache(s).
thanks very much.
