Hi, according to discussions on debian-devel, Debian is kind of planning to move away from src:ntp as NTP server implementation. chrony is among the candidates to be a replacement, and it already has significant coverage since it's installed in the Debian Cloud images. However, chrony doesn't support ntp mode 6, and thus check_ntp_peer does not work with chrony servers. It would be lovely if there would be a plugin that allows remote monitoring of a chrony server. There is an open github issue upstream since 2018, so it seems unlikely that upstream will provide such a plugin in the near future.
