Server Config
=============
Check out /etc/inet/ntp.server 
copy it to /etc/inet/ntp.conf
This is what minie looks like. Notice that i commented out the server
and fudge and that i added my own ntp server.
#server 127.127.XType.0 prefer
#fudge 127.127.XType.0 stratum 0
server timelord.uregina.ca

Client Config
=============
Then on your solaris clients copy /etc/inet/ntp.client to
/etc/inet/ntp.conf

Then start up xntpd
/etc/init.d/xntpd start

The ntp server will send out multicast traffic. The NTP client will pick
up the multicast.
