+Notes for installing chrony on macOS
+Author: Bryan Christianson (bryan@whatroute.net)
+------------------------------------------------
+
+These files are for those admins/users who would prefer to install chrony
+from the source distribution and are intended as guidelines rather than
+being definitive. They can be edited with a plain text editor, such as
+vi, emacs or your favourite IDE (Xcode)
+
+It is assumed you are comfortable with installing software from the
+terminal command line and know how to use sudo to acquire root access.
+
+If you are not familiar with the macOS command line then
+please consider using ChronyControl from http://whatroute.net/chronycontrol.html
+
+ChronyControl provides a gui wrapper for installing these files and sets the
+necessary permissions on each file.
+
+
+Install the chrony software
+---------------------------
+
+You will need xcode and the commandline additions to build and install chrony.
+These can be obtained from Apple's website via the App Store.
+
+cd to the chrony directory
+./configure
+make
+sudo make install
+
+chrony is now installed in default locations (/usr/local/sbin/chronyd,
+/usr/local/bin/chronyc)
+
+Create a chrony.conf file - see the chrony website for details
+
+The support files here assume the following directives are specified in the
+chrony.conf file
+
+keyfile /etc/chrony.d/chrony.keys
+driftfile /var/db/chrony/chrony.drift
+bindcmdaddress /var/db/chrony/chronyd.sock
+logdir /var/log/chrony
+dumpdir /var/db/chrony
+
+Install this file as /etc/chrony.d/chrony.conf and create
+the directories specified in the above directives if they don't exist.
+You will need root permissions to create the directories.
+
+
+Running chronyd
+---------------
+At this point chronyd *could* be run as a daemon. Apple discourage running
+daemons and their preferred method uses the launchd facility. The
+support files here provide a launchd configuration file for chronyd and also
+a shell script and launchd configuration file to rotate the chronyd logs on a daily basis.
+
+
+Support files
+-------------
+Dates and sizes may differ
+-rw-r--r--  1 yourname  staff  2084  4 Aug 22:54 README.txt
+-rwxr-xr-x  1 yourname  staff   676  4 Aug 21:18 chronylogrotate.sh
+-rw-r--r--  1 yourname  staff   543 18 Jul 20:10 org.tuxfamily.chronyc.plist
+-rw-r--r--  1 yourname  staff   511 19 Jun 18:30 org.tuxfamily.chronyd.plist
+
+If you have used chrony support directories other than those suggested, you
+will need to edit each file and make the appropriate changes.
+
+
+Installing the support files
+----------------------------
+
+1. chronylogrotate.sh
+This is a simple shell script that deletes old log files. Unfortunately because
+of the need to run chronyc, the standard macOS logrotation does not work with
+chrony logs.
+
+This script runs on a daily basis under control of launchd and should be
+installed in the /usr/local/bin directory
+
+sudo cp chronylogrotate.sh /usr/local/bin
+sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/chronylogrotate.sh
+sudo chown root:wheel /usr/local/bin/chronylogrotate.sh
+
+
+2. org.tuxfamily.chronyc.plist
+This file is the launchd plist that runs logrotation each day. You may
+wish to edit this file to change the time of day at which the rotation
+will run, currently 04:05 am
+
+sudo cp org.tuxfamily.chronyc.plist /Library/LaunchDaemons
+sudo chown root:wheel /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.tuxfamily.chronyc.plist
+sudo chmod 0644 /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.tuxfamily.chronyc.plist
+sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.tuxfamily.chronyc.plist
+
+
+3. org.tuxfamily.chronyd.plist
+This file is the launchd plist that runs chronyd when the Macintosh starts.
+
+sudo cp org.tuxfamily.chronyd.plist /Library/LaunchDaemons
+sudo chown root:wheel /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.tuxfamily.chronyd.plist
+sudo chmod 0644 /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.tuxfamily.chronyd.plist
+sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.tuxfamily.chronyd.plist
