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.
