There is no tinker option in Solaris 9 xntpd.

In Solaris 10, if you have Update 9, then the ntp.conf man page applies
to the NTP version 4 daemon (ntpd) , not the version  3 daemon (xntpd).

To use V4, do this:

svcadm disable svc:/network/ntp:default
svcadm enable  svc:/network/ntp4:default

Do not enable them both.
