An NTPv3 client cannot use Autokey, but when ntpd is configured with "version 3", it sends and accepts invalid NTPv3 messages with Autokey extension fields. That's a bug. > > Some client implementations support NTPv4 only and don't accept an > > NTPv3 response. > > That's fine. Is there an issue with this? It doesn't work with servers that respond with NTPv3, i.e. the "which works perfectly with V4 clients" quoted at the beginning of this email is not true. > Dave Mills and I have each wondered what your NTPv5 proposals will do that > cannot be implemented by using the v4 packet format and extension fields. Nothing. You could do everything with new NTPv4 extension fields. There was even a proposal in that direction to get around RFC7822: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-mlichvar-ntp-short-extension-fields-01 But there seems to be a consensus we should make a clean break and address the issues properly instead of doing ugly hacks. > Folks here have also said that they expect "separate engines" for v4 and v5 > packets in their NTP code. If that's the case, who cares if the EFs are the > same or if they're different? It will simplify the implementations that want to support both. The code that looks for extension fields in an NTP message can be separate from the code that generates or parses the actual extension fields. -- Miroslav Lichvar
