1.4 Compatibility with Other Versions of NetWare
NTPv3 components cannot be loaded on a server where timesync.nlm is running.
All versions of NetWare 4 can use only NCP. NetWare 5.x and 6.x can use NCP and NTP.
The NTPv3 component, XNTPD, replies to NCP time requests to support backward compatibility for Timesync.
