OT: Debian nor OS/X get time from MS's SNTP

[Kent West]

Our Windows admin guy tells me that the time server for campus is 
running SNTP (RFC 1769). I've noticed that neither my Debian box nor two 
Macintosh OS/X boxes can synch time against our ntp server. However, 
they can synch against a Solaris server we have.

Does Linux and/or OS/X not work with SNTP?

Is the Solaris box running NTP rather than SNTP. Is there an easy way 
for me to find out?

How do I determine if my Debian box can work with SNTP,  or if it only 
works with NTP? Ditto the Mac.

(I'm suspecting that the Windows server is somehow configured to be 
Microsoft-centric, but I'm willing to entertain the idea that the 
problem lies elsewhere.)

Thanks for any pointers!

Kent
