I've seen references in this group to problems with machines running
SunOS 4.X.X but I hadn't paid much attention to them since most of the
machines I run xntp on are BSD 4.3 based (Celerity 12X0's and FPS Model
500EA's).  It recently occurred to me that I should have been paying
attention since our new OS, FPX+ for the new FPS Model 500S is based
upon SunOS 4.1 and I'd like to make sure we don't have the problem.
Would someone please send me a detailed description of the problem?  So
far, I've been running Sun's only as slaves for xntp.
