Running xymon 4.3.13 on SuSe ES 11 SP 3, the ntp test isn’t working:
Command: ntpdate -u -q -p 2 10.1.9.51 2>&1

        !!!!!!!!!!!!!!  WARNING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The ntpdate program is deprecated and should not be used any more.
I have given up on ntpdate, sntp, "ntpd -q" etc ... each sub-version of 
the ntp package appears to have a new set of commands and options.

In version 5, the NTP check is built into the network test tool, so it 
doesn't rely on any external programs.
