Guys, As most folks know, I resist the urge to comment on NTPv3 (xntpd); however, I don't know where Yahoo or Youtube or Yazzam latched the information that enable/disable pll enables or disables the NTP clock discipline. In xntpd, it ONLY enables or disables the kernel discipline. In NTPv4 the enable/disable ntp command does enable and disable the clock discipline, both in the daemon AND the kernel.
