If you were to look at the ntp-docs that are in /usr/share/doc/ntp-docs/html/ Specifically: file:///usr/share/doc/ntp-doc/html/ntpd.html about 2/3rds of the way down the file. You will find a section called: Command Line Options In there you will find the "-L" option. -L Do not listen to virtual IPs. The default is to listen. So if you are using Debian Sarge (I assume), to the file /etc/init.d/ntp-server change the following partial line: /usr/sbin/ntpd -- -p /var/run/ntpd.pid -u $UGID to this /usr/sbin/ntpd -- -p /var/run/ntpd.pid -L -u $UGID adding the -L will make ntpd not listen on Virtual IPs. Hope this Helps.
