Some time ago there was psotes to this group some squawks about
problems with AIX370 (using an relatively old version).  I'm running
a reasonable recient version and I'm about to try bringing up ntpd.

My question is 
what precision is correct for the ntp.conf file?  Given that the 'official'
precision of gettimeofday(2) is 1 milisecond, but the 'real' precision seems
to be ~ 1/60 of a second.

Any hints here?
