Sad to say, the Trimble Acutime 2000 GPS receiver is not supported
by the xntpd program supplied with Solaris 8 and Solaris 9.

If you need to use this device, you should install the latest
NTPv4 package, available as source code from

http://www.ntp.org/

There is also this binary package available.

You could also let your friendly Sun salesperson know that you
would like to see Sun support the Trimble product.

These BluePrints might be helpful, also.
