Okay, I get it now. As I said, I previously fixed the man pages. I 
have now also updated install-sfw, Solaris/ntp, RtNTPMngmnt.html, 
SmfNTPStates.html and SmfValueNTP.html. These last three don't have 
prototypes, but they were not totally consistent with each other. Nor 
does the manifest have a prototype, but the header is already what I 
would guess it should be.

The commands ntp-keygen, ntpdc and ntpq can use this file, as noted in 
their own man pages.

There are two sample ntp.conf files delivered already, 
/etc/inet/ntp.server and /etc/inet/ntp.client.
