ntp-rns.replaytv.net
, which is right now just another way of specifying the same machines as rns.replaytv.net
.
This server name isn't separately configurable; it appears to be generated simply by prepending "ntp-" to a valid RnsProtocol server name. ntp-rns-1
and ntp-rns-2
are both valid as expected, but ntp-rns-backup
currently is not.
Starting with GaeaSoftware 4.3, an additional Time Verification step is added; this is HTTP based like the rest of the RnsProtocol.
The URL looks like:
http://production.replaytv.net/cgi-bin/2.0/vtime2.pl?time=1023916660&r=1jhrh3eb808aydkude6fph4195jy3The 'r' argument is a sequence of a random number (25 to 35) of randomly chosen alphanumeric characters. The response has content type
application/vnd.replay.vtime
; it's actually the raw binary form of an elgemal signature (as used for FileVerification) of the md5hash of the time
argument and the r
argument, concatentated.
