Does anyone have experience with configuring ntp for a demon leased
line, specifically for Suns with Solaris 7 & Sun's ntp?

I did what I thought is reasonable (based on previous ntp setups), but
it seems to be hopelessly bad.  I'm using the 3 ntp servers demon
list to sync one internal machine which then works as a server for a
bunch of clients.  I'm unconvinced stuff is getting synced at all as
the clients don't sync to the server (I'm not good enough at reading ntpq
output to know if the server is synced to the demon machines, and I
can't do rsh foo date to find out if it's reasonably close...

Any help much appreciated!

Thanks
