AR Fast SNTP v0.10.1 Preview 1

First public testing preview · Windows x64 · unsigned Inno installer

This release packages the Windows CI #49 SUCCESS executable from Git commit ef23e4efa0905334c0a7f58c1b03a6573802ce3f, validated in the original project before it was renamed to masarray/arfast-sntp.

Included

  • A compact, branded Avalonia Windows Studio and one permanent Windows Service.
  • Up to 16 configured IPv4 NTP servers; Add/Delete/Enable/Disable without reinstalling the service.
  • Source health, selected source, stratum, offset, server time, RTT with tooltip and status history.
  • Bounded SNTPv4 probing, source election/consensus checks, outlier and failover logic.
  • Inno Setup x64 installer and diagnostic export.

Download and verify

Download ARFastSNTP-Setup-Windows-x64.exe and ARFastSNTP-Setup-Windows-x64.exe.sha256 from this release's Assets. In PowerShell, run:

Get-FileHash .\ARFastSNTP-Setup-Windows-x64.exe -Algorithm SHA256

Compare the reported hexadecimal SHA-256 digest to the .sha256 file. This is a code-unsigned preview; verification of the publisher identity is not available.

Important safety information

For trusted isolated lab/test PCs only. Not for production SCADA, SOE, historian or any critical system. The default installer activates clock correction when it has an eligible reference. To test monitor-only operation, run the installer with /LABSYNC=0. Administrator approval is required at install time.

Reported real tests accepted two public Cloudflare NTP IPv4 replies and a small clock correction. They do not establish GPS-grade precision, independent sources, robust recovery from a very large time jump, or production acceptance.

Outstanding validation

Windows DPI 100–200% and live GUI behavior; real 1/2/3-source failover and conflicting independent servers; long-running resource soak; upgraded service rollback/uninstall; large clock-step barrier and antivirus/TLS effects. ARSAS/Npcap RAW same-host Mode 4 delivery remains unverified. Track these in Issue #2.

No public stable release claim is made for this version. Feedback, redacted diagnostics and screenshots are welcome.
