2000 nissan frontier xe differential

I just got my desert runner and was told that it has a locking rearend. Well the snow came hard and I spun one tire with an ocasional transfer.
Does the truck have a locking or limited rearend and should it work better than this? Is it mechanical or electric? Does it work off ABS sensors? Can I override and lock it on and whats involved?

Additional information: 2000 nissan frontier xe Dessert runner, 5 speed manual trans and ABS. v6
