Chances are, your system already has Sun's NTP server and client software installed. pkginfo will tell you:

$ pkginfo | grep -i ntp

systemSUNWntpr NTP, (Root)

systemSUNWntpu NTP, (Usr)

If not, install these two packages from your CD-ROM.

Config files are in /etc/inet

just an additional question.

on Solaris 10, /etc/init.d/xntpd is no longer exist. thinking of starting it using the svcs. would you mind sharing with us how to restart the xntpd daemon or such equivalent? :--) ty in advance.
