NTPD - Help

[Mossycat]

Can anyone explain why the daemon ntp has a -U switch, and what the switch does.

I cannot find it listed anywhere, closest I can find is a -V but mine is -U.

Thanks in advance

You should be able to view descriptions of the command's different switches by viewing the man page for that command.

man ntpd

You can also try searching online. There are a lot of good sites that display man pages online. Here's one example:

ntpd Man Page - BASH Cures Cancer

You should be able to find what you're looking for with one of those methods.

Thanks for your reply, before posting i did try the options you suggested and neither explain or mention the -U option hence why I posted here asking if anyone knew anything.
