<tt>configure
</tt> utility
</h4>
29 <p>The following options are for compiling and installing a working version of the NTP distribution. In most cases, the build process is completely automatic. In some cases where memory space is at a premium, or the binaries are to be installed in a different place, it is possible to tailor the configuration to remove such features as reference clock driver support, debugging support, and so forth.
</p>
30 <p>Configuration options are specified as arguments to the
<tt>configure
</tt> script. Following is a summary of the current options, as of the
4.0.99m version:
