Usually, you ntp off the nearer gov sites like USNO, or a corporate or site standard that chains back to same. Is your dilemma how to configure a client to listen, or how to configure server to listen to his master sources and serve clients? Often a firewall does this function, as it is on the Internet and can hit gov servers and provide time to the inside.

nameserv::server(n)					       Name service facility					       nameserv::server(n)

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME
nameserv::server - Name service facility, Server SYNOPSIS
package require Tcl 8.4 package require nameserv::server ?0.3.2? package require comm package require interp package require logger ::nameserv::server::start ::nameserv::server::stop ::nameserv::server::active? ::nameserv::server::cget -option ::nameserv::server::configure ::nameserv::server::configure -option ::nameserv::server::configure -option value... _________________________________________________________________ DESCRIPTION
Please read Name service facility, introduction first. This package provides an implementation of the serviver side of the name service facility queried by the client provided by the package nameserv. All information required by the server will be held in memory. There is no persistent state. This service is built in top of and for the package comm. It has nothing to do with the Internet's Domain Name System. If the reader is looking for a package dealing with that please see Tcllib's packages dns and resolv. This server supports the Core protocol feature, and since version 0.3 the Search/Continuous feature as well. API
The package exports five commands, as specified below: ::nameserv::server::start This command starts the server and causes it to listen on the configured port. From now on clients are able to connect and make requests. The result of the command is the empty string. Note that any incoming requests will only be handled if the application the server is part of does enter an event loop after this command has been run. ::nameserv::server::stop Invoking this command stops the server and releases all information it had. Existing connections are shut down, and no new connec- tions will be accepted any longer. The result of the command is the empty string. ::nameserv::server::active? This command returns a boolean value indicating the state of the server. The result will be true if the server is active, i.e. has been started, and false otherwise. ::nameserv::server::cget -option This command returns the currently configured value for the specified -option. The list of supported options and their meaning can be found in section OPTIONS. ::nameserv::server::configure In this form the command returns a dictionary of all supported options, and their current values. The list of supported options and their meaning can be found in section OPTIONS. ::nameserv::server::configure -option In this form the command is an alias for "::nameserv::server::cget -option]". The list of supported options and their meaning can be found in section OPTIONS. ::nameserv::server::configure -option value... In this form the command is used to configure one or more of the supported options. At least one option has to be specified, and each option is followed by its new value. The list of supported options and their meaning can be found in section OPTIONS. This form can be used only if the server is not active, i.e. has not been started yet, or has been stopped. While the server is active it cannot be reconfigured. OPTIONS
The options supported by the server are for the specification of the TCP port to listen on, and whether to accept non-local connections or not. They are: -localonly bool This option specifies whether to accept only local connections (-localonly 1) or remote connections as well (-localonly 0). The default is to accept only local connections. -port number This option specifies the port the name service will listen on after it has been started. It has to be a positive integer number (> 0) not greater than 65536 (unsigned short). The initial default is the number returned by the command ::nameserv::server::com- mon::port, as provided by the package ::nameserv::server::common. HISTORY
0.3 Extended the server with the ability to perform asynchronous and continuous searches. 0.2 Changed name of -local switch to -localonly. 0.1 Initial implementation of the server.
