Somebody just recently asked the same question for a Sun on

Subject: The timed and I aren't getting along very well

Toss timed and use ntp.  I tried the various known-to-work-on-suns
patches for the 4.3 timed and was never able to get it to work well.
ntp is much better anyways.

You can get the ntp sources from trantor.umd.edu in the directory
/pub/ntp.3.4.  The file ntp-test.tar.Z is what everyone seems to be
using.  In the directory /archive is a collection of the mail that's
been going around on the ntp mailing list.

There is a bunch of documentation on ntp on louie.udel.edu in
/pub/ntp.  And I noticed that the ntp-test.tar.Z file is in there as
well but I've heard that it's corrupted.
