I am bringing up xntpd on an isolated network containing a Sun 
SparcStation 1+ running SunOS 4.1.1. xntpd is up and running with a local
clock. When I try to use xntpdc it fails with xntpdc: ntp/udp: unknown service.

Now I have modified the /etc/services file as follows:

ntp             123/udp                         # Network Time Protocol

Beliving that ntp sould be a udp protocall. I see xntpdc doing:

 server_entry = getservbyname("ntp", "udp");


What am I missing?
