I am thinking about implementing NTP within Phil Karn's NOS for the
PC.  I looked at xntpd, and it appears what I would have to do is take
the NTP protocol routines from it, and then write all the glue that
goes between xntp and the machine.

Has anyone done anything like this?

Does anyone have any better ideas on what to use as a starting point?
I chose xntp because it uses fixed-point arithmetic.
