    Well, can't help you with that but since you're distributing time from
    one server to a bunch of others you could use ntpd's broadcasting
    feature.
    Saves a lot of overhead.

    If you want to give it a try put

    # values for production environment
    server your.primary.time.source minpoll 10 maxpoll 12
    # t-online's time server in my case
    #server ntp1.sul.t-online.de minpoll 10 maxpoll 12
    broadcast 172.16.1.255 minpoll 10
     
    in your servers ntp.conf and (if i recall it right) either

    enable bclient

    or

    broadcastclient

    in your clients ntp.conf.

    HTH
