Stopping xntpd
NOTE xntpd should be operated on a continuous basis. If it is necessary to stop
xntpd, the interval when it is not running should be kept to a minimum.
If you modify the configuration file or the XNTPD_ARGS environment
variable in the file /etc/rc.config.d/netdaemons while xntpd is
running, you have to stop and restart the daemon in order for the
configuration changes to take effect.
To stop xntpd, issue the following command:
/sbin/init.d/xntpd stop
