There is no Windows version.
The code is mostly clean POSIX. If anybody is familiar with running
POSIX/Unix code on Windows, please poke me off list.
These are my opinions. I hate spam.
========================================
Thanks, Hal. I am disappointed to hear that (particularly as there seems to
have been a Windows version of NTPsec in the past), and I hope that will be
rectified in due course, with the ability to have Windows as stratum-1
servers.
Recent versions of Windows do have the ability to run Linux/UNIX code built
in, without needing 3rd-party software. Early versions of Windows NT had a
POSIX sub-system but it was dropped. Sadly, I have no experience with
either, and program almost exclusively in Delphi/Pascal, not C/C++. You may
know that I've helped with Windows/NTP in the past, but recent errors I've
reported have gone unacknowledged.
Cheers,
David
