To clarify, SNTP is just a mode in which you can talk to a normal NTP
server (ntpd, xntpd). Excerpt from RFC-2030:
SNTP can be used when the ultimate performance of the full NTP
implementation described in RFC-1305 is not needed or justified. When
operating with current and previous NTP and SNTP versions, SNTP
Version 4 involves no changes to the NTP specification or known
implementations, but rather a clarification of certain design features
of NTP which allow operation in a simple, stateless remote-procedure
call (RPC) mode with accuracy and reliability expectations similar to
the UDP/TIME protocol described in RFC-868.
