Ah, the man page is unclear on that:

       nts [enable|disable] [mintls version] [maxtls version] [tlsciphers
       name] [tlsciphersuites name]

No mention of cert or key there.

Also, the man page makes no mention of default cert in: /etc/ntp/cert-chain.pem

Which is where I got the error message that I sent you.

Yes, how else does ntpd get messages on UDP 123?

Weird.  I thought we agreed to use NTS-KE, not NTS?  Needs to be on the
man page.

So, now I have to ntpd with NTS-KE running.  But, new issues.

I changed this:

server 204.17.205.8 maxpoll 5 # spidey

To this:

server 204.17.205.8 nts maxpoll 5 # spidey

Now the server starts as before, then, silently dies...
