The current HBTCP v1.2 will work with ISC 2.0.2 90%. The only things
that I have seen that don't work are the UDP time services and the
SLIP. Seems that ISC disagrees with me on the UDP stuff (Dick are you
there?) but I have found that it doesn't. The SLIP not working is
spelled out in the manual on page 1 or 2. Other than that I have
found it to be both faster and more reliable than the version 1.0 (or
whatever it was).
