https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=202016 Ian Lepore <ian@FreeBSD.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |ian@FreeBSD.org Resolution|--- |Works As Intended Status|New |Closed --- Comment #3 from Ian Lepore <ian@FreeBSD.org> --- The ntpdc tool communicated with ntpd using "mode 7 private control packets", a feature which is no longer supported by ntpd because of sercurity concerns (this comes from the upstream ntp project, who documented ntpdc and mode 7 packets as depracted some time ago). Everything that used to require ntpdc can now be done using ntpq, which uses supported mode 6 packets. You might reasonably ask why ntpdc is still distributed as part of ntp (I sure wonder why), but I suspect only the ntp project folks could answer that. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
