Hi Ralf,

NTP includes an SNTP implementation.
If you get an ntp tarball you also get the sntp subdir.
The configure.ac includes an AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS(sntp).
It is possible for somebody to only build/distribute the sntp/ subtree,
and that is what I mean by a "tear-off package".
In this case, Bruce Korb is helping me to convert the code to use
AutoGen and AutoOpts. This means I need to distribute libopts/ as part
of things.
I am hoping to have the tree look like:
ntp/
ntp/...
ntp/sntp
ntp/sntp/...
ntp/sntp/libopts
ntp/sntp/...
ntp/...
and use the sntp/libopts code for both the sntp/ code as well as the
other executables in the ntp/* tree.
The tarball is at:
ftp://ftp.eecis.udel.edu/pub/ntp/ntp4/testing/ntp-dev-ag.tar.gz
Please note that we are hacking on this code fairly often, but that
tarball should be a useful example.
