Thank you. Hopefully this patch will be commited soon. I'd also like to make an additional, unrelated, suggestion, specific to 10.2 upgraders: --- ntp.conf.orig1 2015-07-24 14:54:23.378446000 +0200 +++ ntp.conf 2015-07-24 14:53:15.242509000 +0200 @@ -59,6 +59,12 @@ restrict 127.0.0.1 restrict ::1 +# NTP mode 7 implementation-specific requests, as used by the deprecated +# ntpdc(8) utility, are no longer processed by default (v4.2.8). +# Use ntpq(8) instead of ntpdc(8), or restore the old behaviour at the cost +# of additional security risks, depending on your 'restrict' options. +#enable mode7 + # # If a server loses sync with all upstream servers, NTP clients # no longer follow that server. The local clock can be configured I have been using ntpdc(8) for a very long time and unfortunately ignored ntpq(8) yet, so that it took me a significat ammount of time to find out why my 10-stable -> 10.2-Beta2 update suddenly stopped talking to me like I'd expect...
