another big code-commit to check_ntp. jitter calculations now work, and
the program is becoming much closer on the packet-for-packet level to how check_ntp.pl behaves. i'll send an email in the morning :) git-svn-id: https://nagiosplug.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/nagiosplug/nagiosplug/trunk@1371 f882894a-f735-0410-b71e-b25c423dba1c
