Dan,

DEC elected to use ntp, rather than xntp. The spytools of
the one do not work on the other; however, the protocol
itself interoperates just fine. If you need to spy on ntpd
hosts, use the ntpdc program that comes with ntp.3.4. If
you need to spy on xntpd and/or fuzzballs use the ntpq 
program that comes with xntp. Yes, I have recommmended to
both DEC and Sun that they use xntp, but they get to choose
themselves after all.
