<p>Interactive format commands consist of a keyword followed by zero to four arguments. Only enough characters of the full keyword to uniquely identify the command need be typed. The output of a command is normally sent to the standard output, but optionally the output of individual commands may be sent to a file by appending a <code>></code>, followed by a file name, to the command line. A number of interactive format commands are executed entirely within the <code>ntpq</code> program itself and do not result in NTP mode-6 requests being sent to a server. These are described following.

used only by that host, although exceptions exist as noted later on
this page.
The symmetric keys file, normally called
-<samp><span class="file">ntp.keys</span></samp>,
+<span class="file">ntp.keys</span>,
is usually installed in
-<samp><span class="file">/etc</span></samp>.
+<span class="file">/etc</span>.
Other files and links are usually installed in
-<samp><span class="file">/usr/local/etc</span></samp>,
+<span class="file">/usr/local/etc</span>,
which is normally in a shared filesystem in
NFS-mounted networks and cannot be changed by shared clients.
In these cases, NFS clients can specify the files in another
directory such as
-<samp><span class="file">/etc</span></samp>
+<span class="file">/etc</span>
using the
<code>keysdir</code>
<code>ntpd(1ntpdmdoc)</code>
<p>This program directs commentary and error messages to the standard
error stream
-<samp><span class="file">stderr</span></samp>
+<span class="file">stderr</span>
and remote files to the standard output stream
-<samp><span class="file">stdout</span></samp>
+<span class="file">stdout</span>
where they can be piped to other applications or redirected to files.
The names used for generated files and links all begin with the
string
-<samp><span class="file">ntpkey*</span></samp>
+<span class="file">ntpkey*</span>
and include the file type, generating host and filestamp,
as described in the
<a href="#Cryptographic-Data-Files">Cryptographic Data Files</a>
The recommended procedure is change to the
<kbd>keys</kbd>
directory, usually
-<samp><span class="file">/usr/local/etc</span></samp>,
+<span class="file">/usr/local/etc</span>,
then run the program.
<p>To test and gain experience with Autokey concepts, log in as root and
change to the
<kbd>keys</kbd>
directory, usually
-<samp><span class="file">/usr/local/etc</span></samp>.
+<span class="file">/usr/local/etc</span>.
When run for the first time, or if all files with names beginning with
-<samp><span class="file">ntpkey*</span></samp>
+<span class="file">ntpkey*</span>
have been removed, use the
<code>ntp-keygen</code>
command without arguments to generate a default
command
to assume root may not work properly, since by default the OpenSSL library
looks for the random seed file
-<samp><span class="file">.rnd</span></samp>
+<span class="file">.rnd</span>
in the user home directory.
However, there should be only one
-<samp><span class="file">.rnd</span></samp>,
+<span class="file">.rnd</span>,
most conveniently
in the root directory, so it is convenient to define the
.Ev RANDFILE
environment variable used by the OpenSSL library as the path to
-<samp><span class="file">.rnd</span></samp>.
+<span class="file">.rnd</span>.
<p>Installing the keys as root might not work in NFS-mounted
shared file systems, as NFS clients may not be able to write
to the shared keys directory, even as root.
In this case, NFS clients can specify the files in another
directory such as
-<samp><span class="file">/etc</span></samp>
+<span class="file">/etc</span>
using the
<code>keysdir</code>
<code>ntpd(1ntpdmdoc)</code>
while the trusted name is used for the identity files.
<p>All files are installed by default in the keys directory
-<samp><span class="file">/usr/local/etc</span></samp>,
+<span class="file">/usr/local/etc</span>,
which is normally in a shared filesystem
in NFS-mounted networks.
The actual location of the keys directory
certificate should be re-generated.
<p>Additional information on trusted groups and identity schemes is on the
-“Autokey Public-Key Authentication”
+Autokey Public-Key Authentication
page.
<p>File names begin with the prefix
-<samp><span class="file">ntpkey</span></samp>_
+<span class="file">ntpkey</span>_
and end with the suffix
-<samp><span class="file">_</span></samp><kbd>hostname</kbd>. <kbd>filestamp</kbd>,
+<span class="file">_</span><kbd>hostname</kbd>. <kbd>filestamp</kbd>,
where
<kbd>hostname</kbd>
is the owner name, usually the string returned
This both guarantees uniqueness and simplifies maintenance
procedures, since all files can be quickly removed
by a
-<code>rm</code> <samp><span class="file">ntpkey*</span></samp>
+<code>rm</code> <span class="file">ntpkey*</span>
command or all files generated
at a specific time can be removed by a
-<code>rm</code> <samp><span class="file">*</span></samp><kbd>filestamp</kbd>
+<code>rm</code> <span class="file">*</span><kbd>filestamp</kbd>
command.
To further reduce the risk of misconfiguration,
the first two lines of a file contain the file name
<p>On each trusted host as root, change to the keys directory.
To insure a fresh fileset, remove all
-<samp><span class="file">ntpkey</span></samp>
+<span class="file">ntpkey</span>
files.
Then run
<code>ntp-keygen</code>
<code>-P</code>
<code>-p</code> <kbd>password</kbd>
to generate the host key file
-<samp><span class="file">ntpkey</span></samp>_ <code>RSA</code> <samp><span class="file">key_alice.</span></samp> <kbd>filestamp</kbd>
+<span class="file">ntpkey</span>_ <code>RSA</code> <span class="file">key_alice.</span> <kbd>filestamp</kbd>
and trusted private certificate file
-<samp><span class="file">ntpkey</span></samp>_ <code>RSA-MD5</code> <code>_</code> <samp><span class="file">cert_alice.</span></samp> <kbd>filestamp</kbd>,
+<span class="file">ntpkey</span>_ <code>RSA-MD5</code> <code>_</code> <span class="file">cert_alice.</span> <kbd>filestamp</kbd>,

Copy both files to all group hosts;
they replace the files which would be generated in other schemes.

to the host key file and soft link
-<samp><span class="file">ntpkey_cert_</span></samp><kbd>bob</kbd>

Note the generic links are on bob, but point to files generated
by trusted host alice.

If there are no hosts restricted to operate only as clients,
there is nothing further to do.

Copy or email this file to all restricted clients.
On these clients install a soft link from the generic
-<samp><span class="file">ntpkey_iff_alice</span></samp>

To further protect the integrity of the keys,
each file can be encrypted with a secret password.

Copy this file to all group hosts and install a soft link
from the generic
-<samp><span class="file">ntpkey_gq_alice</span></samp>
+<span class="file">ntpkey_gq_alice</span>
to this file.
In addition, on each host
<kbd>bob</kbd>
install a soft link
from generic
-<samp><span class="file">ntpkey_gq_</span></samp><kbd>bob</kbd>
+<span class="file">ntpkey_gq_</span><kbd>bob</kbd>
to this file.
As the
<code>GQ</code>

where
<kbd>d</kbd>
is the key number (0 <

Copy the parameter file to alice and install a soft link
from the generic
-<samp><span class="file">ntpkey_mv_alice</span></samp>
+<span class="file">ntpkey_mv_alice</span>
to this file.
Copy one of the client key files to alice for later distribution
to her clients.
since they all work the same way.
Alice copies the client key file to all of her clients.
On client bob install a soft link from generic
-<samp><span class="file">ntpkey_mvkey_bob</span></samp>

.Ev RANDFILE
environment variable is not present,
the library will look for the
-<samp><span class="file">.rnd</span></samp>
+<span class="file">.rnd</span>
file in the user home directory.
Since both the
<code>ntp-keygen</code>
program and
<code>ntpd(1ntpdmdoc)</code>
daemon must run as root, the logical place to put this file is in
-<samp><span class="file">/.rnd</span></samp>
+<span class="file">/.rnd</span>
or
-<samp><span class="file">/root/.rnd</span></samp>.
+<span class="file">/root/.rnd</span>.
If the file is not available or cannot be written,
the daemon exits with a message to the system log and the program
exits with a suitable error message.
<p>All file formats begin with two nonencrypted lines.
The first line contains the file name, including the generated host name
and filestamp, in the format
-<samp><span class="file">ntpkey_</span></samp><kbd>key</kbd> <kbd>_</kbd> <kbd>name</kbd>. <kbd>filestamp</kbd>,
+<span class="file">ntpkey_</span><kbd>key</kbd> <kbd>_</kbd> <kbd>name</kbd>. <kbd>filestamp</kbd>,
where
<kbd>key</kbd>
is the key or parameter type,
names in generated link names include only lower case characters.
The filestamp is not used in generated link names.
The second line contains the datestamp in conventional Unix
-<samp><span class="file">date</span></samp>
+<span class="file">date</span>
format.
Lines beginning with
-‘#’
+#
are considered comments and ignored by the
<code>ntp-keygen</code>
program and
printable ASCII text, preceded and followed by MIME content identifier lines.
<p>The format of the symmetric keys file, ordinarily named
-<samp><span class="file">ntp.keys</span></samp>,
+<span class="file">ntp.keys</span>,
is somewhat different than the other files in the interest of backward compatibility.
Ordinarily, the file is generated by this program, but it can be constructed
and edited using an ordinary text editor.

An OpenSSL key consists of a hex-encoded ASCII string of 40 characters, which
is truncated as necessary.

program generates a symmetric keys file

+<span class="file">ntpkey_MD5key_</span><kbd>hostname</kbd>. <kbd>filestamp</kbd>.
Since the file contains private shared keys,
it should be visible only to root and distributed by secure means
to other subnet hosts.
The NTP daemon loads the file
-<samp><span class="file">ntp.keys</span></samp>,

so
<code>ntp-keygen</code>
installs a soft link from this name to the generated file.
