Again, with *SNTP*, not NTP.

It steps the clock.  It doesn't slew it.  That's a feature not included 
with SNTP.  These machines are industrial instrumentation and control 
data aggregation boxes in a very large manufacturing plant.  They are 
aggregating data on (sometimes) 1/4 second intervals.  I'm getting 
problems from the system clocks being being updated by 10-15 seconds at 
times.
