All right.   I did:

./configure --enable-ONCORE
make
make install

I stopped ntpd and started it again.

The following lines are cut and pasted from the output of dmesg!

configuration of 127.127.30.0 failed

What do I try now?  Does anyone have this particular configuration 
working?  Solaris 8  on an Ultra 5 with the Oncore driver?

TIA
