This package contains the NTP daemon and utility programs. The NTPUDPClient class is a UDP implementation of a client for the Network Time Protocol (NTP) described in RFC 1305 as well as the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) in RFC-2030. To use the class, merely open a local datagram socket with open and call getTime to retrieve the time. Then call close to close the connection properly.
