I just found this information out this morning when I did a fresh install of Lenny and couldn't find ntpdate. I think my heart skipped a beat.
# If you use the testing distribution, please note that ntp has been # removed from it because of a license issue¹. You should be able to # install the version from unstable², though. Thanks for those links! I appreciate it. This morning I kinda fell into a panic when I couldn't find ntpd and so I did some Google searching. It seems that people are suggesting a move to OpenNTPD. I found this link about it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenNTPD. I understand the licensing issues and all, but I really really need to have the information provided by `ntpq -p`. Time is very important at my job. Does anyone know if OpenNTPD can provide this information? I guess what I should be asking is: should I make a move to OpenNTPD or some other NTP service? Or should I just install the deb files from Sid and go on like nothing happened? Any information or comments are welcome. Thanks! Chris Stackpole
