I have been running xntp3 on two DECstations for several months, using
them as campus servers.  They are being used by lots of Suns, HPs, and
other DECstations with no problems.  I just took the latest xntp3 from
louie and built it on a DECstation; it runs fine and xntpdc on a Sun
can query it with no problems.  I suspect there's some other problem
lurking here that's preventing xntp from working correctly.
