[comp.protocols.time.ntp] New user. Xntpd not staying alive.

I may be missing something obvious here.

I have just compiled xntp and created a simple ntp.conf file in /etc.
However when I run it, it just seems to quit.  It doesn't seem to hang around
like I thought daemons should.  Doing a ps -ax shows no xntpd.

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?  The compile worked fine (after I remaked
with the NODNS and NO_SIGNED_CHAR and LITTLE on the re untarred files), yet
apparently nothing is happening.  

I am running on a SUN 386i with SunOs 4.0.2.   My binaries are in 
/usr/local/etc.  

Again.  I am clueless at the moment.
