8.4: How do I set up NTP?
NTP configuration is so complex and widely variable from site to site
that it would be impossible to make a blanket statement here. Your
best bet is to ask whoever's in charge of NTP at your site or network
provider; chances are that they are running a similar version of NTP
to the one that we provide, and they can probably provide you with the
right configuration files to get things going.
If you can't find anyone in charge, you should examine the files in
/usr/src/contrib/xntpd/doc and see if they help any. If not, you
could ask on the comp.protocols.time.ntp newsgroup, or the
<ntp@ni.umd.edu> mailing-list.

can sometimes cause problems with network intensive applications like
NFS. See /usr/src/contrib/FAQ/OTHER-FAQS/NFS for more information on this
