Sun's xntpd is about ten years behind the times. Download the current production version of the NTP distribution from http://ntp.isc.org/bin/view/Main/SoftwareDownloads

I tried to avoid that because it would place ntpd outside the normal patch process. Therefore I googled before I posted and checked if I could find known problems with Sun's xntpd. I didn't found any mentioning of an oscillation problem.

It was just mentioned that Solaris 8 always slews the clock and "disable pll" was recommended. (That did not help, as mentioned.) As far as I understand, the behaviour at my system might be due to a too large frequency error. Would the update to a current ntp version really help in that case?

Cheers,
