+ntp (1:4.2.0a+stable-8) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+ The NTP server now runs as the user "ntp". (Obviously it retains its
+ ability to change your clock. ;-)

+
+ntp (1:4.2.0a+bk20040620-3) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ If your system changes ethernet addresses (e.g. a roving laptop),
+ you need to restart ntpd. A small script to do that is in
+ /etc/interfaces/if-up.d/ntp-server. To enable it, remove the "exit 0"
+ line.

+
+ntp (1:4.2.0a-6) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ The "noserve" configuration option was buggy in versions before 1:4.2.
+ It did not restrict everything it was documented to restrict.
+
+ The impact on existing configuration files is that if you have "noserve" in
+ your /etc/ntp.conf, and you can no longer sync to your peers, you might
+ need to replace the "noserve" option with "noquery" or "nomodify".

+
+ntp (1:4.2.0a-3) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+ Downgrading the NTP package will not work automatically because the init
+ scripts have changed significantly.
+
+ The old init scripts and cron.daily/weekly files for ntp-simple and
+ ntp-refclock have been saved+disabled by renaming them to
+ "NAME.dpkg-old". If you have made any changes to them, you need to port
+ these changes to the new /etc/{init.d,cron.daily,cron.weekly}/ntp-server
+ scripts.
+
+ Likewise, if you changed the startup script's run order by renaming
+ the links in /etc/rc*.d, you need to re-do this change.

+ntp (1:4.2.0a-0.1) experimental; urgency=low
+
+ Upstream has implemented their own patch for chroot-jail and change-uid.
+ Predictably, they use different flags (-j and -u, not -R and -U).
+
+ The Debian patch introduced in version 1:4.2.0-0.4 is therefore removed;
+ -R and -U are no longer recognized.

+
+ntp (1:4.2.0-0.6) experimental; urgency=low
+
+ The common parts of the "simple" and "refclock" NTP server packages have
+ been split off into their own package "ntp-server".
+
+ "ntp-server" now contains the code which needs to run on the same system
+ as the NTP server (example: startup scripts).
+
+ "ntp" consists of those programs which access an NTP server either locally
+ or across the Internet.

+
+ntp (1:4.2.0-0.3) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ /etc/ntp.conf and /etc/default/ntp are no longer generated by the
+ postinst scripts. Instead, they're now regular conffiles. You will
+ therefore see a standard "Update?" message from dpkg.
+ You should answer "Y" if you did not modify your NTP configuration
+ manually.
+
+ The default NTP time server is "pool.ntp.org", which resolves to a
+ list of public stratum-1 and stratum-2 servers. One of them will be
+ picked semi-randomly each time your NTP server starts.
+
+ Note that the default configuration does NOT send broadcasts and does NOT
+ allow any remote queries.
+
+ "Remote" is defined as non-RFC1918 network addresses, i.e. anything
+ not in 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, or 192.168.0.0/16. The ntp server
+ does not try to discover any interface addresses. This is a feature.
