	I have been running xntpd version 3.1 on sun sparcs and have
	noticed that trying to use the internal clock with this version
	does not work.  If I set a machine to sink to its internal clock
	at let say strat 5 that machine will not then broadcast itself
	as a strat 5 clock instead it thinks it is strat 18 or 21 (I
 	forget what the exact number is but its the highest possible).
	Because of this when I loose my network connection all my machine
	clocks start to slowly wonder.  Can you give me any clues as
	to if I'm doing something wrong or if this is a bug.  I have used
	xntpd version 2?? in the past and have not seen this problem.
