Update:
Chrony now running on three of my Linux Ubuntu servers and all four of my Macs ( 2 MBA, I MacMini and 1 MacPro).
So, for the most part I have retired
ntpd in favor of
chronyd.
All boxes show system times within a few microseconds of NTP time.
I want to take this time to thank gull04 for suggesting
Chrony in this earlier post, in this discussion:
So it may well be that I'll have to change to Chrony
I've mostly made the switch thanks to Gull04! Thanks for the idea.

Hi,
I have edited the /etc/inet/ntp.conf file to point to a new time server. When I restart ntp on Solaris 10 using 'svcadm disable/enable ntp' it still points to the old ntp server when I run a 'ntpq -p'.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

chrony.conf
chrony.conf(5) Configuration Files chrony.conf(5)
NAME
chrony.conf - chronyd configuration file
SYNOPSIS
/etc/chrony.conf
DESCRIPTION
chrony is a pair of programs for maintaining the accuracy of computer clocks. chronyd is a background daemon program that can be started at
boot time.
Assuming that you have found some servers, you need to set up a configuration file to run chrony. The (compiled-in) default location for
this file is /etc/chrony.conf. Assuming that your ntp servers are called `a.b.c' and `d.e.f', your chrony.conf file could contain as a
minimum
server a.b.c
server d.e.f
server g.h.i
However, you will probably want to include some of the other directives described in detail in the documentation supplied with the distri-
bution (chrony.txt and chrony.texi). The following directives will be particularly useful : `driftfile', `commandkey', `keyfile'. The
smallest useful configuration file would look something like
server a.b.c
server d.e.f
server g.h.i
keyfile /etc/chrony.keys
commandkey 1
driftfile /etc/chrony.drift
