Yes, I don't have a YD system up at the moment, but it worked fine under
3.0.
This is the file that I use on my main time server in /etc/ntp.conf (it's
an old redhat machine, check the name.)
server ntp.netvision.net.il
driftfile /etc/ntp/drift
authenticate no
Make sure that ntpd can write the drift file and it is primed with a number,
such as root "echo "1" >/etc/ntp/drift".
The YD system had the name of this one as it's server.
