Works fine !

I'm using the file 

louie.udel.edu:/pub/ntp/doc/clock.txt

to know the location of NTP servers. In this file, the version of the
servers is not indicated. I do not know exactly why it is necessary to put
this option

 -o 2

and it works ! When I type man ntpdate, it says that ntpdate, by default,
claims to be an NTP version 2 server, but on my machine the default
command ntpdate bitsy.mit.edu, without the option -o 2, did not work
actually. 

Thanks for your precious experience, Gordon.

Jean-Paul
