The NTP standard specifies an extension which provides cryptographic authentication of received NTP packets. ... The specification allows any one of possibly 4 billion keys, numbered with 32-bit key identifiers, to be used to authenticate an association. ... In the case of MD5, the keys are 64 bits (8 bytes). xntpd reads its keys from a file specified using the -k command line option or the keys statement in the configuration file. ... A zero key in NTP format would be specified as 8080808080808080 . ...

... Sternberg Astronomical Institute , Moscow University . ... Present edition unites two parts of Catalogue of interacting galaxies by B.A.Vorontsov-Velyaminov: the first part (Part 1) containing 355 systems was published in 1959 [1] and the second one (Part 2) with 497 objects - in 1976 [2].Thus two published parts of Catalogue include 852 interacting systems. ... All new of them (1162 by number) were taken from the comments to the galaxies in Morphological catalogue by Vorontsov-Velyaminov et al.[ ...

... The distance scales of the objects are matched both by comparing the first derivatives of the angular velocity determined separately from radial velocities and proper motions and by the statistical-parallax method. ... Good agreement between the inferred 0 and our calculations based on space velocities suggests that the Lindblad relation holds throughout the entire sample volume. ... Brandt and Blitz (1993) published the distances and radial velocities for a total of 206 H II-regions. ... Astron. ...
