Nonstop NTP client demo

# Program name = ntp.py
# This program is for Nonstop server NTP client
# prerequirements : HP Nonstop OSS , Pyhton 2.4.2 (get it from ITUGLIB,http://ituglib.connect-community.org), and 
# donwload ntplib-0.1.9 from Python Package Index
# You have to modify ntplib.py in ntplib-0.1.9 to accept ip address NTP. Here is snippet
#   def request(self, host, version=2, port='ntp'):
#       """make a NTP request to a server - return a NTPStats object"""
#        # lookup server address
#        #addrinfo = socket.getaddrinfo(host, port)[0]
#        #family, sockaddr = addrinfo[0], addrinfo[4]
#        family=2
#        sockaddr=(host,123)

# You need to use Super Group to run the program.Because SETTIME is Super Group ONLY.
# Usage : gtacl -c "$(python ntp.py)"
