The NTP logs are written by default into system log file i.e /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log until and unless you have specified -l option with xntpd daemon

Do a grep on xntpd daemon and if it doesn't have -l option with it the its syslog file otherwise its the file specified after -l option.

Check /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log on each machine for NTP messages. All NTP messages are logged there.

Hi

NTP (xntpd) messages are logged to /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log.
You can use a "-l" option with xntpd to specify an alternate file.
If you want xntpd to start with specific options edit the /etc/rc.config.d/netdaemons file.
