- We've been running an experimental version on two of our RS/6000s for the
- past couple of months. The University of Delaware is the maintainer of
- NTP, and that's where I got this version. Their anonymous ftp server
- no longer has the file I downloaded; I'm not sure which version to use.
- There is a brand new distribution in udel.edu:/pub/ntp/xntp3.tar.Z, and
- I'll bet that includes RS/6000 support: take a look there.

- In answer to your question, yes, there is a "bizarreness" about AIX
- which requires special support.
