+There are two example configuration files provided, /etc/inet/ntp.client and
+/etc/inet/ntp.server. The first provides examples and some discussion around
+the configuration information that goes into the /etc/inet/ntp.conf file. The

+The simplest way to start using the \fBNTP\fP service on a new host is to run
+the command:
+.sp

+.nf
+echo 'server hostname iburst' > /etc/inet/ntp.conf
+.fi

+and then start the service. Replace 'hostname' with the actual hostname of an
+NTP server. You can add more lines like this one with the hostnames of more
+NTP servers, but do not configure exactly two. Four servers is optimal, but
+never use two.
