23 utility is an operating system daemon which sets
24 and maintains the system time of day in synchronism with Internet
27 Network Time Protocol (NTP) version 4, as defined by RFC\-5905,
29 version 3, as defined by RFC\-1305, and versions 1
30 and 2, as defined by RFC\-1059 and RFC\-1119, respectively.
34 utility does most computations in 64\-bit floating point
35 arithmetic and does relatively clumsy 64\-bit fixed point operations
