I would like to use one of my Ultra 10's running Solaris 8 as an xntp
server from which other Solaris 7 boxes will sync their time against.  I
have moved the /etc/inet/ntp.server file on the Ultra 10 to
/etc/inet/ntp.conf and invoked /usr/lib/inet/xntpd on this server.  On
the clients I moved /etc/inet/ntp.client to /etc/inet/ntp.conf and
changed the multicastclient entry in those ntp.client > ntp.conf files
to broadcastclient.  I have restarted each client's /usr/lib/inet/xntpd
daemons so that they may re-read the ntp.conf files.  I don't notice any
time syncing happening here.  Can anyone tell me or give me a simple
example of setting up an xntp server and client relationship?

Thanks Solaris geniuses!
