Thank you to those who sent suggestions.

Reading suggestions included
http://www.ntp.org and
http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~ntp/
As I understand it, the base source code would need to be modified to
modify the sampling or query rate. Seevral other ntp versions offer
minpoll and maxpoll options.

Original Question:
How often does an xntpd query its servers for a time update?
Is there a way to pchange that default value? Am I
stuck with doing a periodic ntpdate?

I've had no luck finding any information in any of the man pages
associated with any of the time-related commands.
